StockStory Flags Arlo Technologies (ARLO) as a Buy, Warns on BlackLine (BL) and Macy’s (M)

StockStory on May 29, 2026, identified Arlo Technologies (NYSE:ARLO) as a profitable stock worth investigating, while advising investors to brush off BlackLine (NASDAQ:BL) and Macy’s (NYSE:M). Arlo, a cloud-based smart security provider, recorded a trailing 12-month GAAP operating margin of 2.9%. The stock trades at $13.27 per share, implying a 17.1x forward price-to-earnings ratio. The research firm highlighted Arlo’s financial strength as a competitive differentiator. Conversely, BlackLine, a financial close software vendor, carries a 3.9% operating margin and trades at $26.97, or 2.4x forward price-to-sales, raising concerns about its model’s durability. Macy’s, the department store chain with a 4.6% operating margin, trades at $22.48 and a 10.1x forward P/E, but StockStory questions its long-term prospects, citing reliance on an outdated retail model.
