Thankfully for PINS, the company has performed well in this regard.</p>\n<p>In 2019, it reported cash and short-term investments of $1.72 billion. That was an increase of 173.34% compared to 2018.

Pinterest excels in its revenue growth for 2017-2020. According to<i>MarketWatch</i>, in 2017, it reported revenue of $472.85 million. Then in 2018, 2019 and 2020, its revenue grew 59.87%, 51.17% and 48.12%, respectively. Pinterest reported 2020 revenue of $1.69 billion.

We can see this trend in its net losses of $130.04 million, $62.97 million, $1.36 billion and $128.32 million for 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively.</p>\n<p>This ultimately points to an inefficient business model, as the company is struggling to deliver profits.</p>\n<p><b>Valuation: Too Pricey</b></p>\n<p>The final issue with PINS stock that I’d like to bring to your attention is it’s overprice valuation. If we use<i>MSN Money</i>to<i>c</i>ompare key financial metrics, such as price-to-sales ratio, price-to-book value and price-to-cash flow ratio, to same ratios of the Software & IT Services space more broadly, we find that Pinterest is relatively overvalued.</p>\n<p>Specifically, PINS stock has a price-to-sales ratio of 21.23x, a price-to-book value ratio of 15.57x and a price-to-cash flow ratio of 3,145x.
