Assess Robinhood Markets (HOOD) Where is the company now?

Start at the start. It's important to understand, in as much detail as possible, how the business arrived at its compromised state. Finding a path back toward business profitability and viability is possible only by understanding the root cause, or causes, of business degradation. In certain situations, this crucial first step can also highlight fundamental problems with the business or its stakeholders. Business is always conducted in a competitive and regulatory context. The business model being prosecuted by the company may not be appropriate for its current circumstances. The company's original competitive advantage/s may no longer exist. Or the market may have moved on. For instance, there may simply not be an adequate demand for the business's offerings to sustain healthy profitability. This first step will mean looking at the company's financials on (say) Yahoo! Finance (or similar) for a first look and then at the company's Annual Report or its Form 10-K for a more sophisticated financial assessment. Does the company's problem/s show themselves with the income statement (e.g., fundamental operational issues) and/or with the balance sheet (e.g., borrowing to cover loss-making operations resulting in excessive stackable debt relative to hard assets)?
