Upturn Advisory & Investor View for GROV

09/15/2026: GROV (1-star) is currently NOT-A-BUY. Pass it for now.

Grove Collaborative is a digital-first retailer focused on selling sustainable home and personal care products through its proprietary brands and online platform. While it has established a loyal customer base and a strong mission, it currently faces significant financial challenges as it moves toward profitability. The primary investment story rests on its ability to transition into an omnichannel presence and improve margins through its owned brands. Risks include intense competition from global consumer goods giants, high logistics costs, and the need for capital discipline. The stock is generally suited for growth-oriented investors with high risk tolerance who are monitoring the company's operational efficiency and retail expansion progress.

Upturn Scorecard

Upturn Star Rating

GROV receives a 3-star rating, supported by available scored pillars. The rating is constrained by soft unit economics, and weak price momentum.

Company Fundamentals

GROV has moderate overall fundamentals (3 stars), with moderate financial health, solid growth momentum, and solid ownership. In FY2025 versus FY2024, strong earnings growth (+57.3%) is partially offset by soft cash generation (FCF margin -4.7%), negative revenue growth (-14.6%), soft profitability (net margin -6.7%).

Financial Health Rating

GROV's financial health is supported by moderate liquidity, including working-capital and asset support (WC/assets 13.2%). Profitability is soft (2 stars), which helps explain the 3-star overall score.

Growth Momentum Score

Earnings growth is GROV's strongest growth driver at +57.3% FY2025 versus FY2024 (strong, 5 stars). By comparison, free-cash-flow growth (+29.4%, solid) is also solid, while revenue growth (-14.6%, negative) holds the profile back, so recent growth is not broad-based across the business.

Ownership

Institutional ownership is 29.1% and approximately 61.9% of outstanding shares are publicly tradable, supporting liquidity and institutional participation. Insider ownership of 33.45% supports management-shareholder alignment.

Top 5 Institutional Investors

NVP Associates LLC 7.55%
Morgan Stanley - Brokerage Accounts 6.34%
General Atlantic Llc 5.80%
Vanguard Capital Management, LLC 2.95%
OZ Management LLC 2.79%

Unit Economics (Per $1K Revenue)

GROV generates approximately $537 of gross profit, $-47 of operating income, and $-47 of free cash flow for every $1,000 of revenue. Based on FY2025 results. Strong cash conversion and healthy margins support the rating, although capital efficiency remains below the highest tier.

Economic Dimensions

Effective Tax Rate: -0.28% (Tax Credit)

Quantitative Style Profile

GROV has a liquid profile. Weak momentum is the primary drawback.
