Winston Score History

The full picture

TROOPS, Inc. is a financial technology company based in China that connects businesses with financial services. It operates a platform that helps small and medium-sized businesses access loans, insurance, and other financial products. The company essentially acts as a middleman between companies that need money and the banks or lenders that provide it.

TROOPS makes money by earning fees and commissions when it successfully matches businesses with financial products through its platform. It operates primarily in China, where demand for small business lending services is large but competition is intense. The company is quite small, with a market cap of around $200 million, and its financials show significant challenges — it is currently losing far more money than it earns, with an operating margin of nearly negative 100%. The biggest risk the company faces is proving it can grow revenue fast enough to cover its costs before it runs out of financial runway.

Strong grower

TROOPS is growing revenue at 27% year-over-year. The Winston Score penalises unprofitable companies, but revenue at this pace tells a different story — this is a company still in "build mode."

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.
