TheStreet Ratings team rates SMITH MICRO SOFTWARE INC as a Sell with a ratings score of D-. The team has this to say about their recommendation:
"We rate SMITH MICRO SOFTWARE INC (SMSI) a SELL. This is driven by a few notable weaknesses, which we believe should have a greater impact than any strengths, and could make it more difficult for investors to achieve positive results compared to most of the stocks we cover. The company's weaknesses can be seen in multiple areas, such as its unimpressive growth in net income, disappointing return on equity and weak operating cash flow."
