Research Solutions Inc appears to be a good buy right now due to its recent gross margin improvement to 51.7%, which is a 220 basis point increase year-over-year, and a forward P/E ratio of 13.87, suggesting it is undervalued compared to its earnings potential. However, the main risk is the recent decline in customer retention, as evidenced by the churn of 46 customers resulting in a loss of $398,000 in annual recurring revenue.
