Proven numbersAcceleratingAI verdict · as of 2026-08-13

The move is getting stronger, with heavier trading behind it.

Red Violet up 61% t12m at 90% of 52w range — Q2 EPS +50%, $115M raise at $60 closed, 87% gross margin.

Red Violet is the identity-intelligence software franchise (idiCORE investigative platform, FOREWARN professional risk-mitigation app) serving financial services, insurance, healthcare, law enforcement, and collections. The stock is up 61% over 12 months at 90% of the 52-week range as the multi-quarter beat pattern plus specific capital-raise catalyst compounds.

  • The Q2 print is a specific blowout: EPS $0.50 vs $0.33 estimate (+50% beat), revenue $26.7M (+23% YoY, above $25.6M), and the last four EPS surprises are all beats: +50%, +44%, +40%, +22% — a specific consistent-large-beats pattern. Analysts model FY26 revenue $105M rising to $119M FY27, plus FY26 EPS $1.48.
  • The strategic-and-capital layer is fresh: $115M underwritten public offering closed August 7 at $60/share (1.92M shares including full greenshoe — net ~$108.6M), providing significant dry powder for platform expansion. Wasatch Micro Cap Value Fund holds a position, 87% gross margin (structural for software), 22% operating margin.
  • The counterweights are severe: 56x TTM P/E is very demanding, 9.3x P/S is not-cheap, 32x EV/EBITDA priced for continued execution, tiny 12.9M-share float amplifies moves (though the $115M raise expands this), and beta 1.82 (high volatility) — plus 90% of 52w range shows enthusiasm is largely priced.

The November 10 Q3 print is the next gate — a fifth consecutive EPS beat, continued 20%+ YoY revenue growth, and specific commentary on the $108.6M capital deployment is what extends the accelerating tape above $80. A specific Q3 EPS miss, a fresh customer-concentration warning, or a capital-deployment cost-overrun takes it back below $50.

What to watch: November 10 Q3 print — a fifth consecutive EPS beat, continued 20%+ YoY revenue growth, and $108.6M capital-deployment commentary extends the accelerating tape above $80; a Q3 EPS miss, a customer-concentration warning, or a capital-deployment cost-overrun takes it back below $50.

Fundamentals & catalyst

Profitability, valuation, and the next earnings event — at a glance, with rule-of-thumb signals.

Key ratios

P/E
56.3How much investors are paying per dollar of profit the company actually earned in the last 12 months. Lower means the stock looks cheaper relative to earnings.~15–25 is typical for the S&P 500; high-growth names trade 30+; hyper-growth or speculative can be 100+ or negative.
ROIC
13.1%What percentage return the business earns on every dollar of capital (equity + debt) deployed in operations. The cleanest measure of business quality.Above ~15% is high-quality; consistently above 25% suggests a real moat. Below the company's cost of capital is value-destroying.
Op margin
17.9%Operating profit (after sales, marketing, R&D, and overhead but before interest and taxes) as a percentage of revenue. The clearest view of how well the underlying business is run.Mature business above 20% is healthy; software businesses can run 30%+; commodity / retail businesses operate in single digits.
FCF yield
3.4%Free cash flow (operating cash flow minus capex) divided by the company's market cap. The cash-on-cash return you'd get owning the whole business at today's price.Above ~5% is attractive; below ~2% means you're paying up for growth. Capital-light businesses (software) run higher than capital-heavy ones (utilities).
P/S
9.3Same idea as P/E but per dollar of revenue. Useful for companies that aren't profitable yet, where P/E is meaningless.Under ~2 is cheap; software / SaaS often runs 8–15; well above 20 implies the market is pricing in very high future growth.
ROE
15.6%Net income as a percentage of shareholders' equity. Similar to ROIC but counts only the equity side.Above 20% is strong, but can be inflated by leverage — a heavily indebted company can show high ROE with weak underlying ROIC.
Gross margin
87.4%Revenue minus the direct cost of producing what was sold, as a percentage of revenue. The first read on whether the product is structurally profitable.Software / SaaS is typically 70%+; consumer goods 30–50%; commodity / hardware businesses can be under 20%.
D/E
0.0Total debt divided by shareholders' equity. Measures how much the business runs on borrowed money versus owner capital.Under 1 is conservative; 1–2 is typical for mature businesses; over 2 is leveraged and more sensitive to interest rates.

AI summary

Red Violet (RDVT) disclosed preliminary estimated Q2 2026 financial results under Items 2.02 and 7.01, ahead of its concurrent equity offering. The company cautioned that these are estimates subject to change as financial closing procedures for the June 30, 2026 quarter are not yet complete. The disclosure is standard practice for companies raising capital concurrent with an earnings release — the estimates give investors a financial data point to evaluate the offering without waiting for final audited results.
