## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): n/a** (negative earnings). Boston Omaha Corporation reported negative earnings over the last twelve months, so the P/E is not meaningful; use price-to-sales, EV/EBITDA and free-cash-flow yield instead.
- **Price / sales: 3.8×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 3.8×.
- **Price / book: 0.8×**. The shares trade below book value, which can signal a bargain or a balance sheet the market doubts.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: -1.1%** (5-yr avg -3.9%). Free cash flow is negative: the business is consuming cash, which is normal for heavy investment phases but a warning otherwise.

## Profitability
- **Gross margin: 65.7%**. Boston Omaha Corporation keeps 65.7% of revenue after the direct cost of what it sells, the kind of margin that comes with software, brands or pricing power.

- **Net margin: -10.9%**. The company reported a net loss over the last twelve months.
- **Return on equity: -2.4%**. Return on equity is negative because earnings are negative.
- **Return on invested capital: -0.8%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is -0.8%: close to or below the cost of capital, so growth may not create value.
- **Return on assets: -1.9%**. Each dollar of assets produces -1.9% of profit.

## Growth

- **EPS growth (1 yr): -900.0%**. Earnings per share fell 900.0%, slower than revenue, so margins compressed.
