iRobot still has valueThe company still has expertise and patents in the robot and automation world. Their debt is manageble and robotics still has potential in other areas like warehouse. Also a 33% short interest means that any move up would encourage shorters to close their positions. I think 28$ is a good target.Longby shiftparkUpdated 5

IRobot Announces Restructuring Plan and Leadership ChangesiRobot Corporation (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:IRBT ), a prominent player in the consumer robotics industry, has unveiled a comprehensive operational restructuring plan. The announcement comes on the heels of the mutual decision with Amazon to terminate their proposed merger agreement. The restructuring plan includes leadership transitions, cost-saving measures, and a renewed focus on core business elements. Let's delve into the details and implications of this transformative strategy for iRobot. Leadership Transition: One of the significant changes involves the departure of Colin Angle, the long-standing Chairman and CEO of iRobot. Angle, who founded the company over three decades ago, has played a pivotal role in revolutionizing the robotics industry. Despite stepping down from his leadership roles, Angle will continue to serve on the iRobot Board of Directors until May 2024 and will act as a senior advisor for up to 12 months to facilitate a smooth transition. Glen Weinstein, iRobot's Executive Vice President and Chief Legal Officer, steps into the role of Interim CEO. The board has initiated a search for a permanent CEO with the support of a leading executive search firm. These leadership changes signal a strategic shift and the need for a leader with turnaround experience to guide iRobot through its next chapter. Operational Restructuring Plan: The operational restructuring plan aims to align iRobot's cost structure with near-term revenue expectations and drive profitability. Key initiatives include achieving margin improvements, reducing R&D expenses through offshoring, centralizing global marketing activities, rightsizing the global real estate footprint, and focusing the product roadmap on core value drivers. The company anticipates generating $80-$100 million in savings through agreements with manufacturing partners and reducing its workforce by 31%, resulting in approximately 350 job cuts. Jeff Engel, a seasoned turnaround expert, has been appointed Chief Restructuring Officer to oversee the implementation of these initiatives. The restructuring efforts are expected to incur charges of $12-$13 million, primarily for severance and related costs. Financial Update: iRobot provided preliminary fourth-quarter results, indicating a 25% reduction in full-year 2023 revenue compared to the previous year, a GAAP operating loss of $265-$285 million, and a non-GAAP operating loss of approximately $200 million. The company ended fiscal year 2023 with $185 million in cash and cash equivalents. Under the terminated merger agreement, Amazon ( NASDAQ:AMZN ) will pay iRobot ( NASDAQ:IRBT ) a $94 million termination fee, providing a financial cushion to support future repayments and inventory purchases. Looking Ahead: Despite the disappointment in the company's 2023 performance, iRobot's ( NASDAQ:IRBT ) leadership expresses confidence in the strategic measures taken. Andrew Miller, the newly appointed Chairman of the Board, emphasizes a renewed focus on the company's brand, product performance, and underlying technology. The upcoming fourth-quarter earnings call on February 27, 2024, is expected to provide additional insights into iRobot's restructuring efforts and future business plans. Conclusion: iRobot's ( NASDAQ:IRBT ) announcement of a comprehensive operational restructuring plan and leadership changes reflects a proactive response to current challenges. The strategic shift towards profitability, cost optimization, and a refined business focus signals a commitment to long-term sustainability and growth. As the company navigates this transformative phase, the industry and investors will be closely watching for the successful execution of these strategic initiatives and the potential resurgence of iRobot's ( NASDAQ:IRBT ) brand in the consumer robotics market.by DEXWireNewsPublished 4

IRBT Long Term Buying OpportunityIRBT looks like an attractive long-term buy as it sits hovering around its 13-year support trend line. RSI signaling we are around oversold territory on the weekly. Scaling into an IRBT position seems like a smart move here as short-term momentum will likely take price action lower to the 29.72 support area. This is not financial advice. Good Luck!Longby Gooby_TradesPublished 223

iRobot: Undervalued Amid Global Chip ShortageRelated News : "Bad decisions, bad luck, and then increased demand" has led to a global semiconductor shortage, with the bad luck being the covid 19 pandemic closing down the only factories that made chips, and the increased demand being bored children who want a new iPhone 12 to pass time during quarantine. How iRobot is Affected : iRobot needs semiconductors to make their Roomba vacuum cleaners. The global chip shortage is reducing the amount of vacuums they can produce, which leads to lower gross revenue and makes the business seem more unattractive to outside investors. Fundamental Analysis : A PE (price to earnings) ratio of 20.48 and a PB (price to book) ratio of 2.86 indicates this company is still modestly valued, despite the recent 60% selloff from its all time high of 196$. A current ratio of 2.90 and a DE (debt to equity) ratio of 0 shows iRobot can easily pay off any debt it may have. Sales over the past five years have increased by 18.30% annually, and iRobots EPS (earnings per share) has increased by 28.50% annually, leading me to believe this is a fast growing company. ROE (return on equity) is 13.90% as well. All in all, everything is good with iRobots balance sheet, at least for now. In the future, however, the company has stated that revenue, net profit, and eps will not be in line with past predictions; the chip shortage will temporarily reduce profits and gross revenue, although next year will be better as the semiconductor situation gets under control. iRobot also said it plans to repurchase 100 million dollars worth of shares under an accelerated share repurchasing agreement next month, which means a slight increase in stock prices in the shorter term. Technical Analysis : iRobot has been in a downtrend for the past six-seven months, which provides an opportunity to buy the dip (my favorite term)! My proposed buying range is between 60-70$, as it has not yet been established how long this downtrend will continue. 60-70$ is an area with many key supports, which makes it a good place to enter into a then undervalued stock. My first price target is 100$ by December of next year. The semiconductor situation will have been resolved by then, and it is likely more outside investors will be interested in iRobot when the money starts flowing. My second price target is 132$ by August of 2023. iRobot will have completely recovered and should continue to grow at a fast pace, resulting in a higher stock price than in previous years. Personal Opinion : Honestly, I believe iRobot will survive the semiconductor shortage and do well in the next two to three years. It has the fundamentals, the buyback plan, the temporarily adverse market conditions to make the stock a bargain, and the strong support levels that provide a place to park my money. Everything is there; and I won't miss this opportunity like I missed bitcoin at 10k (damn it). ***Diamond hands to you all---and also, this is not actual financial advice.
