AI Summary

5.0
Neutral

REAL now looks less like a niche growth story and more like a cash-conversion test: strong GMV, revenue and ~75% gross margins show the model can scale, but negative operating/free cash flow, negative equity and sub-1.0 current ratio mean the next earnings report must prove that profit is turning into durable cash before the rebound becomes investable.
