# BrightView Holdings Inc. (BV) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-09-08. NYSE, United States. Sector: Industrials / Professional Services. Price $11.36, market value $1.1 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): n/a** (negative earnings). BrightView Holdings Inc. 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: 0.4×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 0.4×, a low multiple typical of thin-margin businesses or out-of-favour stocks.
- **Price / book: 0.9×**. The shares trade below book value, which can signal a bargain or a balance sheet the market doubts.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: -2.3%** (5-yr avg 5.0%). Free cash flow is negative: the business is consuming cash, which is normal for heavy investment phases but a warning otherwise.

## Profitability
- **Gross margin: 21.2%**. BrightView Holdings Inc. keeps 21.2% of revenue after the direct cost of what it sells, a thin margin typical of retail, distribution and commodity businesses.
- **Operating margin: 3.5%**. 3.5% of revenue is left after running the business, which leaves little cushion in a downturn.
- **Net margin: 2.1%**. 2.1% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: 4.3%**. 4.3% on shareholders' equity is weak; the business earns little on the capital its owners have in it.
- **Return on invested capital: 3.8%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is 3.8%: close to or below the cost of capital, so growth may not create value.
- **Return on assets: 0.6%**. Each dollar of assets produces 0.6% of profit.

## Growth
- **Revenue growth (1 yr): -3.4%** (3-yr -1.2%/yr, 5-yr 2.6%/yr). Revenue fell 3.4% over the last year, against 2.6% a year compounded over five years: growth is slowing.
- **EPS growth (1 yr): -35.0%** (3-yr -2.4%/yr). Earnings per share fell 35.0%, slower than revenue, so margins compressed.

## Financial health
- **Debt to equity: 0.61**. Debt is 0.61 times equity, moderate leverage.
- **Altman Z-score: 1.85**. A Z-score of 1.85 is in the grey zone; not distressed, not clearly safe.
