Improving Business Interactions with AiChat's AI Agents: Voice AI and Agentic AI
DUBLIN, Ohio, March 03, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- reAlpha Tech Corp. ('reAlpha' or the 'Company') (Nasdaq: AIRE), a real estate technology company developing and commercializing artificial intelligence ('AI') technologies, today announces that its subsidiary, AiChat Pte.

Those who invested in Atlanticus Holdings (NASDAQ:ATLC) five years ago are up 301%
Buying shares in the best businesses can build meaningful wealth for you and your family. While not every stock performs well, when investors win, they can win big. Don't believe it? Then look at the Atlanticus Holdings Corporation (NASDAQ:ATLC) share price. It's 301% higher than it was five years ago. If that doesn't get you thinking about long term investing, we don't know what will. It's down 1.3% in the last seven days. Now it's worth having a look at the company's fundamentals too, because that will help us determine if the long term shareholder return has matched the performance of the underlying business. Trump has pledged to "unleash" American oil and gas and these 15 US stocks have developments that are poised to benefit. To quote Buffett, 'Ships will sail around the world but the Flat Earth Society will flourish. There will continue to be wide discrepancies between price and value in the marketplace...' One flawed but reasonable way to assess how sentiment around a company has changed is to compare the earnings per share (EPS) with the share price. During five years of share price growth, Atlanticus Holdings achieved compound earnings per share (EPS) growth of 33% per year. That makes the EPS growth particularly close to the yearly share price growth of 32%. That suggests that the market sentiment around the company hasn't changed much over that time. Indeed, it would appear the share price is reacting to the EPS. You can see below how EPS has changed over time (discover the exact values by clicking on the image). We're pleased to report that the CEO is remunerated more modestly than most CEOs at similarly capitalized companies. It's always worth keeping an eye on CEO pay, but a more important question is whether the company will grow earnings throughout the years. This free interactive report on Atlanticus Holdings' earnings, revenue and cash flow is a great place to start, if you want to investigate the stock further. It's nice to see that Atlanticus Holdings shareholders have received a total shareholder return of 92% over the last year. That gain is better than the annual TSR over five years, which is 32%. Therefore it seems like sentiment around the company has been positive lately. Given the share price momentum remains strong, it might be worth taking a closer look at the stock, lest you miss an opportunity. It's always interesting to track share price performance over the longer term. But to understand Atlanticus Holdings better, we need to consider many other factors. Take risks, for example - Atlanticus Holdings has 2 warning signs (and 1 which is a bit unpleasant) we think you should know about. If you are like me, then you will not want to miss this free list of undervalued small caps that insiders are buying. Please note, the market returns quoted in this article reflect the market weighted average returns of stocks that currently trade on American exchanges. Have feedback on this article?

Is Frontdoor, Inc. (NASDAQ:FTDR) Trading At A 24% Discount?
Using the 2 Stage Free Cash Flow to Equity, Frontdoor fair value estimate is US$73.99 Frontdoor is estimated to be 24% undervalued based on current share price of US$56.43 The US$55.50 analyst price target for FTDR is 25% less than our estimate of fair value In this article we are going to estimate the intrinsic value of Frontdoor, Inc. (NASDAQ:FTDR) by taking the expected future cash flows and discounting them to today's value. We will use the Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) model on this occasion. Models like these may appear beyond the comprehension of a lay person, but they're fairly easy to follow. Remember though, that there are many ways to estimate a company's value, and a DCF is just one method. For those who are keen learners of equity analysis, the Simply Wall St analysis model here may be something of interest to you. We've found 21 US stocks that are forecast to pay a dividend yield of over 6% next year. See the full list for free. We use what is known as a 2-stage model, which simply means we have two different periods of growth rates for the company's cash flows. Generally the first stage is higher growth, and the second stage is a lower growth phase. To begin with, we have to get estimates of the next ten years of cash flows. Where possible we use analyst estimates, but when these aren't available we extrapolate the previous free cash flow (FCF) from the last estimate or reported value. We assume companies with shrinking free cash flow will slow their rate of shrinkage, and that companies with growing free cash flow will see their growth rate slow, over this period. We do this to reflect that growth tends to slow more in the early years than it does in later years. Generally we assume that a dollar today is more valuable than a dollar in the future, and so the sum of these future cash flows is then discounted to today's value: 2025 2026 2027 2028 2029 2030 2031 2032 2033 2034 Levered FCF ($, Millions) US$278.4m US$294.2m US$281.0m US$275.2m US$273.6m US$275.0m US$278.3m US$283.2m US$289.1m US$295.9m Growth Rate Estimate Source Analyst x2 Analyst x2 Analyst x1 Est @ -2.06% Est @ -0.56% Est @ 0.49% Est @ 1.22% Est @ 1.74% Est @ 2.10% Est @ 2.35% Present Value ($, Millions) Discounted @ 7.3% US$259 US$256 US$228 US$208 US$193 US$180 US$170 US$162 US$154 US$147 ("Est" = FCF growth rate estimated by Simply Wall St)Present Value of 10-year Cash Flow (PVCF) = US$2.0b The second stage is also known as Terminal Value, this is the business's cash flow after the first stage. For a number of reasons a very conservative growth rate is used that cannot exceed that of a country's GDP growth. In this case we have used the 5-year average of the 10-year government bond yield (2.9%) to estimate future growth. In the same way as with the 10-year 'growth' period, we discount future cash flows to today's value, using a cost of equity of 7.3%. Terminal Value (TV)= FCF2034 × (1 + g) ÷ (r – g) = US$296m× (1 + 2.9%) ÷ (7.3%– 2.9%) = US$7.0b Present Value of Terminal Value (PVTV)= TV / (1 + r)10= US$7.0b÷ ( 1 + 7.3%)10= US$3.5b The total value, or equity value, is then the sum of the present value of the future cash flows, which in this case is US$5.4b. In the final step we divide the equity value by the number of shares outstanding. Relative to the current share price of US$56.4, the company appears a touch undervalued at a 24% discount to where the stock price trades currently. The assumptions in any calculation have a big impact on the valuation, so it is better to view this as a rough estimate, not precise down to the last cent. The calculation above is very dependent on two assumptions. The first is the discount rate and the other is the cash flows. Part of investing is coming up with your own evaluation of a company's future performance, so try the calculation yourself and check your own assumptions. The DCF also does not consider the possible cyclicality of an industry, or a company's future capital requirements, so it does not give a full picture of a company's potential performance. Given that we are looking at Frontdoor as potential shareholders, the cost of equity is used as the discount rate, rather than the cost of capital (or weighted average cost of capital, WACC) which accounts for debt. In this calculation we've used 7.3%, which is based on a levered beta of 1.000. Beta is a measure of a stock's volatility, compared to the market as a whole. We get our beta from the industry average beta of globally comparable companies, with an imposed limit between 0.8 and 2.0, which is a reasonable range for a stable business. Check out our latest analysis for Frontdoor Strength Earnings growth over the past year exceeded the industry. Debt is well covered by earnings and cashflows. Weakness No major weaknesses identified for FTDR. Opportunity Annual earnings are forecast to grow for the next 3 years. Good value based on P/E ratio and estimated fair value. Threat Annual earnings are forecast to grow slower than the American market. Although the valuation of a company is important, it shouldn't be the only metric you look at when researching a company. It's not possible to obtain a foolproof valuation with a DCF model. Rather it should be seen as a guide to "what assumptions need to be true for this stock to be under/overvalued?" For example, changes in the company's cost of equity or the risk free rate can significantly impact the valuation. What is the reason for the share price sitting below the intrinsic value? For Frontdoor, we've compiled three further aspects you should look at: Risks: Be aware that Frontdoor is showing 2 warning signs in our investment analysis , you should know about...

Better Electric Vehicle (EV) Stock: Lucid Group vs. Rivian
Right now, Lucid Group is growing faster than Rivian. However, Rivian holds a huge, undervalued advantage. Lucid is going to need to produce more affordable vehicles. 10 stocks we like better than Lucid Group › Demand for electric vehicles is expected to surge over the next several decades. While much of this growth is expected globally, penetration for EVs is still expected to rise substantially in the U.S., the primary market for both Lucid Group (NASDAQ: LCID) and Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ: RIVN). If you're looking to invest in a company with the potential to be the next Tesla, there are reasons to consider both Lucid and Rivian. But which is a better stock to buy today? When it comes to growth, Lucid is the clear winner right now. In fact, Lucid should be one of the fastest-growing EV makers over the next year or two. Analysts predict 73% sales growth this year, and another 96% growth expected in 2026. Rivian, for comparison, is expected to grow sales by just 5% this year, though that is expected to pick up to a roughly 40% pace in 2026. Why is Lucid growing faster than Rivian? Demand growth for both conventional and electric vehicles does vary from year to year. But for EV pure-plays, by far the biggest driver of growth is the introduction of new models. Earlier this year, Lucid began scaling up the production of its new Gravity SUV. SUVs are one of the highest-selling and fastest-growing categories of vehicles in the U.S. The introduction of the Gravity SUV also doubles Lucid's lineup. Previously, it only had a single model -- the Lucid Air sedan -- available to purchase. Now, its more diversified lineup and greater overall production should fuel heavy sales growth in both 2025 and 2026. There's just one problem: An EV from Lucid still costs anywhere from $70,000 to $249,000 depending on the exact model and package. The top of that range is for its luxury Air Sapphire model, but even the low end prices out the majority of North American buyers. To really fuel massive and long-term growth, more affordable options are needed. And while Lucid has teased plans for three affordable models, details about them have been scarce. Moreover, with less than $1.9 billion in cash on the books, it's not clear that the company has the capital to get these new vehicles into production anytime soon. Rivian, by contrast, has a huge advantage in this department. Over the past few decades, numerous electric car start-ups have gone under. Why? They ran out of money. Designing, building, and marketing a vehicle from scratch typically takes billions of dollars and perhaps a decade or more. All of this typically occurs when the start-up is still deeply unprofitable. To keep such companies afloat requires investors to willingly plug the gap, providing more and more capital until management can turn its vision into reality. Small missteps or timeline delays along the way can cause investors to lose faith. That can restrict capital availability, often sending once-promising start-ups into financing free fall. Lucid is still operating in this critical phase. It may want to roll out new mass-market models, but will need to raise a significant amount of cash in order to do so. It's not clear yet whether that will happen. Rivian, meanwhile, is in a significantly better financial position. Its three upcoming mass-market vehicles -- the R2, R3, and R3X -- appear much further along in the development pipeline than Lucid's new models. Rivian confirmed last month that it is still on track to start production of the R2 in the first half of 2026 with a starting price of around $45,000. The R3 and R3X will follow sometime later. While Lucid only has around $1.9 billion in cash, Rivian has nearly $4.7 billion on its books. Plus, over the past two quarters, Rivian has achieved positive gross margins, which Lucid has never managed. This all makes it much more likely that Rivian will successfully launch its first mass-market vehicles. And as Tesla has proven, that is perhaps the most important milestone an EV maker can achieve on its journey to unlock long-term growth. So while Lucid is growing faster right now, Rivian looks like the better EV stock to own over the next few years and beyond.
