# Caesars Entertainment Inc. (CZR) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-09-08. NASDAQ, United States. Sector: Consumer Cyclical / Hotels, Restaurants & Leisure. Price $29.68, market value $6.0 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): n/a** (negative earnings). Caesars Entertainment 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: 0.5×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 0.5×, a low multiple typical of thin-margin businesses or out-of-favour stocks.
- **Price / book: 1.8×**. The shares trade at 1.8× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **EV / EBITDA: 5.2×**. Enterprise value is 5.2× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed; below 8× is inexpensive for most sectors.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 10.1%** (5-yr avg 3.3%). Free cash flow equals 10.1% of the market value, above its five-year average of 3.3%, so the shares are cheaper on cash than they have usually been. Above 5% is generally attractive.

## Profitability
- **Operating margin: 15.9%**. 15.9% of revenue is left after running the business, a healthy level in most sectors.
- **Net margin: -4.4%**. The company reported a net loss over the last twelve months.
- **Return on equity: -14.3%**. Return on equity is negative because earnings are negative.

- **EPS growth (1 yr): -87.6%**. Earnings per share fell 87.6%, slower than revenue, so margins compressed.
- **Free-cash-flow growth (3 yr): 129.7%/yr**. Free cash flow has compounded at 129.7% a year over three years.

## Financial health
- **Debt to equity: 3.36**. Debt is 3.36 times equity, a leveraged balance sheet that needs steady cash flow to service.
- **Net debt / EBITDA: 3.3×**. It would take 3.3 years of operating earnings to repay net borrowings, above the 3× level most lenders treat as comfortable.
- **Altman Z-score: 0.84**. A Z-score of 0.84 is in the distress zone, a signal to examine the balance sheet closely.
