Brightcove generated a negative expected return over the last 90 days
Brightcove may become a speculative penny stock
Brightcove has high historical volatility and very poor performance
The company currently holds 21.84 M in liabilities with Debt to Equity (D/E) ratio of 0.23, which may suggest the company is not taking enough advantage from borrowing. Brightcove has a current ratio of 0.78, indicating that it has a negative working capital and may not be able to pay financial obligations when due. Debt can assist Brightcove until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Brightcove's shareholders could walk away with nothing if the company can't fulfill its legal obligations to repay debt. However, a more frequent occurrence is when companies like Brightcove sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Brightcove to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Brightcove's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.

Brightcove Greeks

Most traded equities are subject to two types of risk - systematic (i.e., market) and unsystematic (i.e., nonmarket or company-specific) risk. Unsystematic risk is the risk that events specific to Brightcove or IT Services sector will adversely affect the stock's price. This type of risk can be diversified away by owning several different stocks in different industries whose stock prices have shown a small correlation to each other. On the other hand, systematic risk is the risk that Brightcove's price will be affected by overall stock market movements and cannot be diversified away. So, no matter how many positions you have, you cannot eliminate market risk. However, you can measure a Brightcove stock's historical response to market movements and buy it if you are comfortable with its volatility direction. Beta and standard deviation are two commonly used measures to help you make the right decision.

The market value of Brightcove is measured differently than its book value, which is the value of Brightcove that is recorded on the company's balance sheet. Investors also form their own opinion of Brightcove's value that differs from its market value or its book value, called intrinsic value, which is Brightcove's true underlying value. Investors use various methods to calculate intrinsic value and buy a stock when its market value falls below its intrinsic value. Because Brightcove's market value can be influenced by many factors that don't directly affect Brightcove's underlying business (such as a pandemic or basic market pessimism), market value can vary widely from intrinsic value.
Please note, there is a significant difference between Brightcove's value and its price as these two are different measures arrived at by different means. Investors typically determine if Brightcove is a good investment by looking at such factors as earnings, sales, fundamental and technical indicators, competition as well as analyst projections. However, Brightcove's price is the amount at which it trades on the open market and represents the number that a seller and buyer find agreeable to each party.
