If you believe SERV can convert rapid revenue growth into materially positive gross and operating margins, then you could argue for a speculative hold; otherwise, the data favors avoiding or underweighting SERV because its valuation is extreme versus ALB and its profitability remains deeply negative.
SERV trades far above ALB on sales-based valuation despite much smaller revenue and weaker profitability, with a P/S of 184.2x versus ALB's 3.1x and EV/Revenue of 144.5x versus 3.6x. The implied price under the P/S framework is $0.11 versus the current $6.31, indicating a -98.3% downside under that approach.
