# Coursera Inc. (COUR) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-09-08. NYSE, United States. Sector: Consumer Defensive / Household Products. Price $5.80, market value $1.7 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): n/a** (negative earnings). Coursera 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.
- **PEG: 0.18**. A PEG of 0.18 means the P/E is low relative to expected earnings growth: the market is not paying much for that growth.
- **Price / sales: 1.9×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 1.9×.
- **Price / book: 1.4×**. The shares trade at 1.4× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 2.0%** (5-yr avg 2.9%). Free cash flow equals 2.0% of the market value, below its five-year average of 2.9%, so the shares are pricier on cash than usual.

## Profitability
- **Gross margin: 55.9%**. Coursera Inc. keeps 55.9% of revenue after the direct cost of what it sells.
- **Operating margin: -17.8%**. Operating margin is negative: the business loses money before interest and tax.
- **Net margin: -6.7%**. The company reported a net loss over the last twelve months.

- **EPS growth (1 yr): 39.2%**. Earnings per share rose 39.2%, faster than revenue, so margins expanded or the share count shrank.
