Shares of BILL Holdings Inc (BILL, Financial) have experienced a significant decline, shedding 34.09% of their value following the release of its fourth-quarter results. This steep drop can be attributed to the company's revenue meeting forecasts rather than exceeding them, despite the operating profit surpassing expectations.

In its latest financial update, BILL reported a 16% growth in core revenue which was primarily fueled by subscription and transaction fees. However, this growth indicates a slowdown compared to previous quarters, which has been unsettling for investors.

Adding further pressure to the stock, Bill.com issued a revenue guidance for the upcoming quarter that fell below market expectations. This has significantly dampened investor confidence, contributing to the stock's considerable decline.

Currently priced at $63.50, BILL Holdings Inc has a market capitalization of $6.57 billion and is traded on the NYSE. The company has a Price-to-Book ratio of 1.64 and an Enterprise Value of $9.51 billion. The stock's Price-to-Sales ratio stands close to its 1-year high of 7.77.

In terms of valuation, Bill.com carries a GF Value of $150.28, suggesting that the stock might be undervalued at its current price. However, it is important to note that the company also faces warning signs. The Altman Z-Score indicates a financial distress zone, implying a possible bankruptcy risk within the next two years. Additionally, the company's operating margin has been declining at an average rate of 5.7% per year over the past five years.

BILL Holdings' financial health has mixed indicators, with a cash-to-debt ratio of 1.51 and a quick ratio aligning with industry medians. Despite these figures, the company is not currently profitable, and its forward P/E ratio is high at 35.71. Although GF Value suggests potential, investors should be cautious given the financial risks associated with BILL.
