Is Research Solutions Inc overvalued?
Research Solutions Inc carries a Smart Value Score of 41/100 (Grade D), which we rate Sell. That score blends growth, quality, and valuation into one read.

What is the price target of Research Solutions Inc (RSSS)?
The 12-month analyst consensus target is $3.83, about 103.9% above the current $1.88. A consensus target is the average of Wall Street's 12-month forecasts, so it works as a sentiment gauge rather than a guarantee, and it resets with every earnings cycle.
What is the intrinsic value of Research Solutions Inc (RSSS)?
Our DCF model estimates intrinsic value at $2.29, a -9.6% margin of safety versus today's $1.88. Intrinsic value is what the projected cash flows are worth today. A negative reading means the price is running ahead of that conservative estimate, leaving little downside cushion if growth slows.

Research Solutions Inc's trailing twelve-month revenue is $48.31M. Revenue scale anchors the valuation multiples and shows whether growth is reaching the top line, so it is best read alongside margin and growth trends to see if that revenue is getting more profitable over time.
