Deep Value: cash covers about 93% of the stock price

This company holds roughly $196M in cash and investments — about 93% of its entire stock-market value, based on its latest quarterly filing. You're paying very little for the actual business. Sometimes that's a genuine bargain or a takeover target, sometimes it's cheap for a reason. Not a buy signal on its own — always ask why it's this cheap.

Winston Score History

The full picture

American Well, also known as Amwell, runs a telehealth platform that connects patients with doctors and other healthcare providers through video visits. Its main customers are health insurance companies, large hospital systems, and employers who use Amwell's software to offer virtual care to their members and employees. The company operates in the digital health industry and competes in the crowded U.S. telehealth market alongside companies like Teladoc.

Amwell makes money by charging health systems and insurers licensing and subscription fees to use its platform, rather than billing patients directly. It operates mainly in the United States, with some international presence, and generates roughly $300 million in annual revenue. The company has not yet turned a profit, with significant operating losses each year, and its main challenge is reaching profitability while competing against well-funded rivals and navigating slower-than-expected adoption of telehealth services after the post-pandemic surge faded.

Revenue declining

American Well Corporation's revenue is actually shrinking. In a growth stock, that removes the core investment thesis. The low Winston Score here may be warranted — unless there's a turnaround story.

The Winston Score above measures business quality today. Growth stocks often score lower because they invest in the future rather than maximising current profits. These metrics show what matters most for evaluating that future.
