Texas Roadhouse earnings missed by $0.05, revenue topped estimates
RANCHO CUCAMONGA, Calif. - iPower Inc. (NASDAQ:IPW), a $20.86 million market cap e-commerce retailer currently trading at $0.67 per share, announced Tuesday its plans to expand into blockchain technology across multiple business segments, including treasury operations, consumer offerings, and commerce infrastructure. According to InvestingPro analysis, the company appears undervalued based on its Fair Value metrics, though investors should note the stock’s high volatility with a beta of 3.52.
The e-commerce retailer, which generated $74.11 million in revenue over the last twelve months with a healthy gross profit margin of 45.7%, intends to allocate a portion of its capital toward acquiring digital assets as reserve holdings when resources become available. Rather than holding these assets passively, the company plans to deploy them into institutional lending structures designed to generate yield while preserving principal.

"We believe the future of commerce will be deeply integrated with digital assets," said Lawrence Tan, CEO of iPower Inc., according to the company’s press release.
The company also outlined plans to develop consumer-focused digital asset offerings aligned with its e-commerce capabilities, including cloud mining resale, hardware wallet distribution, and crypto financial product referrals through regulated partners.
Additionally, iPower is developing a commercial SaaS platform to support cross-border e-commerce and is evaluating stablecoin infrastructure for international settlements.
The company cited its status as a U.S.-based, publicly listed entity with experience in e-commerce logistics as positioning it to implement these initiatives.
iPower’s announcement includes forward-looking statements subject to various risks, including market volatility, regulatory changes, and operational challenges. The company noted there is no assurance these plans will be implemented successfully or achieve their intended objectives.
iPower describes itself as a technology and data-driven online retailer that also provides e-commerce services for third-party products and brands. Despite facing revenue headwinds with a 17.68% decline in the last twelve months, the company maintains a solid current ratio of 1.92, indicating strong short-term liquidity. InvestingPro rates the company’s overall financial health as "FAIR" with a score of 2.01, offering subscribers access to detailed metrics and expert analysis that go beyond surface-level financials.
