Where ALRM is headed

Alarm.com is the kind of business that gets ignored precisely because it works. 9 million-plus subscribers, 90%+ recurring SaaS revenue from monthly monitoring fees, mid-60s gross margins, and a service provider channel of 11,000+ installers who do the customer acquisition for them. The stock sits at $45 because the residential security pulse has slowed and the bears decided this is a no-growth annuity. They're looking at the wrong product line. The growth engine over the next 24 months is OpenEye and the broader commercial video portfolio, which is selling AI-powered video analytics into mid-market commercial customers (schools, retail chains, multi-site operators) where ADT and the legacy video surveillance vendors have been asleep for a decade.
