Even with a 57/100 (D+) score, VICR faces multiple-compression risk if 80.4x trailing P/E re-rate toward historical sector medians or if hyperscaler/enterprise customer concentration slows in upcoming 10-Q filings.

VICR — Vicor Corporation: What the Facts Mean to a Prospective Investor
Engine: anthropic/claude-haiku-5.5
As of: 2026-11-02T15:16:56Z
Roarable Rating Brief: What This Means to a Prospective Investor
Per the Roarable RQD rating, VICR scores 57 out of 100, a D+ grade labeled "Roarable Sell — Weak Fundamentals / Trim." Across the five pillars:
- Fundamental Cash Engine: 14 / 20. The pillar reflects ROIC of 8.5% and an FCF yield of 1.25%. For a prospective investor, the cash return on capital is modest and the free cash flow yield is thin relative to the share price, which means the stock is priced for growth rather than current cash generation.
- Whale / 13F Flow: 8 / 20. This pillar covers institutional accumulation and options positioning. The source data does not provide 13F detail (see Analyst View section), so the score cannot be traced to specific holder activity in the supplied material.
- Insider Conviction: 8 / 20. This pillar covers SEC Form 4 and Congressional PTR cluster flow. The supplied holders section contains no insider transaction records, so the basis for this score is not visible in the source data.
- Macro Regime Fit: 9 / 20. Beta of 1.26 signals above-market price sensitivity. Investors should expect amplified moves relative to the broader market in both directions.
- Forensic Balance Sheet: 18 / 20. This is the strongest pillar, reflecting Altman Z of 26, Piotroski F of 9/9, and Debt/Equity of 0.04. The balance sheet is a clear support for the equity, even though it does not offset the weak valuation and cash-yield readings.
Taken together, the rating points to a company with a strong balance sheet but a stock trading at a demanding valuation (P/E TTM of 80.4, EV/EBITDA of 92.5) with a thin FCF yield. The investor implication is that upside depends on sustained earnings expansion to justify the multiple, while downside risk is elevated if growth expectations reset. This is an analytical reading of the rating, not personalized advice.

Welcome to the VICR (Vicor Corporation) Roar Pit. Current RQD Composite is 57/100 (Roarable Sell — Weak Fundamentals / Trim) in Industrial Machinery/Components. Bulls point to operating leverage and sector positioning, while bears focus on valuation multiple compression (80.4x trailing P/E). Pick your side (🐂 Bull or 🐻 Bear) and drop your price target below.

Everyone in here is repeating the bull case on VICR, but look at what you are paying: 80.4x trailing P/E with 63.6% gross margins. Unless Vicor Corporation expands free cash flow yield next quarter, I would rather wait for a pullback closer to the 200-day moving average before touching this.

Spot @ $206.62 VICR cash flow & RQD setup is being underpriced by the Street here
Looking at the 5-pillar RQD breakdown on VICR, the market is fixating on short-term headline noise in Industrial Machinery/Components and ignoring the balance sheet and cash flow trajectory. At $206.62 (52-wk range $80.29 - $382.65), any beat on forward guidance forces shorts and underweight funds to chase.
