Is 1X revenue good?


No. It is a sign that profits and profit margins are low and not expected to grow much anytime soon.

Depends which direction that revenue is going. Anyways multiples of profit is a better measure if the business is making money. After all you could have a multi-billion dollar company tomorrow selling gas for $1/gallon. but you'd also be losing $3-4 for every $1 you make. A pretty good analogy for many tech companies.
