AI Insight: FORR Financial Trends
Equity has collapsed 55% from $237M to $106M over eight quarters as recurring operating losses erode the balance sheet.
• Revenue declined year-over-year in the latest quarter: $85M in Q1 2026 vs. $90M in Q1 2025, a 5.6% drop.
• Operating income swung from -$88M in Q1 2025 to -$19M in Q1 2026, a meaningful improvement but still deeply negative.
• Equity eroded from $147M in Q1 2025 to $106M in Q1 2026, driven by persistent net losses across nearly every quarter.
• Operating cash flow turned positive at $26M in Q1 2026, matching Q1 2025's $27M — the only consistent bright spot.
⚠ Q4 2025 net loss of -$34M and Q1 2026 loss of -$22M suggest accelerating equity burn; book value now just $106M.
⚠ Revenue has trended down four consecutive quarters from $122M in Q2 2024 to $85M in Q1 2026 — structural contraction risk.
⚠ Debt held flat at $35M throughout; watch whether covenant headroom tightens as equity cushion continues to shrink.
AI Insight: FORR Ratio Trends
Forrester's financials have collapsed into deep losses, with Q4 2025 and Q1 2026 showing severe multi-quarter deterioration across every profitability metric.
• Operating margin swung from 6.2% in Q2 2025 to -36.6% in Q4 2025 and -21.8% in Q1 2026, signaling accelerating operational deterioration.
• ROIC collapsed from 14.3% in Q2 2025 to -91.6% in Q4 2025 and -52.8% in Q1 2026, erasing returns built earlier in 2024.
• D/E ratio rose from 0.15 in Q2–Q4 2024 to 0.33 by Q1 2026, indicating modest but steady leverage increase alongside worsening losses.
• TTM net profit margin stands at -13.7% and ROA at -13.2%, confirming losses are not isolated to a single quarter.
⚠ Q1 2025 showed extreme -97.5% operating margin — likely a large one-off charge. Confirm whether Q4 2025 losses stem from a similar event.
⚠ D/E has more than doubled from 0.15 to 0.33 in four quarters; monitor whether leverage continues rising as losses persist.
⚠ Q2 2025 showed a brief profitability recovery (OpMargin 6.2%, ROIC 14.3%) — watch if Q2 2026 repeats that seasonal pattern.
