Frequently asked
Is Sprout Social (SPT) a high-quality business?+
Sprout Social scores 69 out of 100 on Intrinsiqq's quality score, a weighted blend of 7 metrics each scored 0 to 100, which rates it a solid business on these measures. Recent figures include a -5.9% operating margin and a -9.6% return on invested capital.

The metric-by-metric breakdown is on this scorecard.
What does Sprout Social's quality score measure?+
Intrinsiqq's quality score weighs revenue and free-cash-flow growth, operating margins, return on invested capital, change in share count, and balance-sheet strength, each computed from SPT's SEC filings rather than opinion or sentiment. A higher score means a more durable, capital-efficient business; it is not a buy or sell signal. Open each metric on this page to see exactly where Sprout Social scores well and where it falls behind.
What is Sprout Social's return on invested capital (ROIC)?+
Sprout Social earns about -9.6% on its invested capital, which is weak. ROIC measures how much profit a company generates per dollar put to work; sustained ROIC above its cost of capital is one of the clearest signs of a real competitive moat. Compare it to SPT's margins and growth on this scorecard to judge durability.
How profitable is Sprout Social?+
Sprout Social runs an operating margin of about -5.9% and a net margin of about -6.1%. Revenue has grown at roughly 28.0% a year recently. High, stable margins usually point to pricing power and operating discipline. Margins are most telling next to growth and returns on capital, all of which feed this quality score. This is analysis from SEC filings, not investment advice.
