## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): n/a** (negative earnings). EchoStar  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: 1.8×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 1.8×.
- **Price / book: 1.8×**. The shares trade at 1.8× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: -2.8%** (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
- **Operating margin: -112.7%**. Operating margin is negative: the business loses money before interest and tax.
- **Net margin: -96.6%**. The company reported a net loss over the last twelve months.
- **Return on equity: -251.4%**. Return on equity is negative because earnings are negative.
- **Return on invested capital: -43.7%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is -43.7%: close to or below the cost of capital, so growth may not create value.
- **Return on assets: -13.2%**. Each dollar of assets produces -13.2% of profit.

## Growth
- **Revenue growth (1 yr): -5.2%** (3-yr -7.0%/yr, 5-yr 51.4%/yr). Revenue fell 5.2% over the last year, against 51.4% a year compounded over five years: growth is slowing.

## Financial health
- **Debt to equity: 4.51**. Debt is 4.51 times equity, a leveraged balance sheet that needs steady cash flow to service.
- **Net debt / EBITDA: net cash**. EchoStar  Corporation holds more cash than debt.
- **Current ratio: 0.42** (quick 0.42). Current liabilities exceed current assets, so the company depends on ongoing cash generation or refinancing to pay the next year's bills.
- **Altman Z-score: -0.60**. A Z-score of -0.60 is in the distress zone, a signal to examine the balance sheet closely.
