# Lionsgate Studios Corp (LION) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-09-08. NYSE, United States. Sector: Consumer Cyclical. Price $11.17, market value $3.3 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): n/a** (negative earnings). Lionsgate Studios Corp 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: 0.50**. A PEG of 0.50 means the P/E is low relative to expected earnings growth: the market is not paying much for that growth.
- **Price / sales: 1.2×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 1.2×.
- **EV / EBITDA: 32.6×**. Enterprise value is 32.6× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed; above 20× is demanding.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 2.9%** (5-yr avg 4.7%). Free cash flow equals 2.9% of the market value, below its five-year average of 4.7%, so the shares are pricier on cash than usual.

## Profitability
- **Operating margin: 4.6%**. 4.6% of revenue is left after running the business, which leaves little cushion in a downturn.
- **Net margin: -7.5%**. The company reported a net loss over the last twelve months.
- **Return on equity: 16.6%**. 16.6% on shareholders' equity is solid.
- **Return on invested capital: 26.0%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is 26.0%: comfortably above what that capital costs.
- **Return on assets: -2.2%**. Each dollar of assets produces -2.2% of profit.

## Growth
- **Revenue growth (1 yr): 1.8%** (3-yr -5.1%/yr). Revenue grew 1.8% over the last year.
- **EPS growth (1 yr): 51.0%**. Earnings per share rose 51.0%, faster than revenue, so margins expanded or the share count shrank.
- **Free-cash-flow growth (3 yr): -67.7%/yr**. Free cash flow has compounded at -67.7% a year over three years.

## Financial health
- **Net debt / EBITDA: 10.6×**. It would take 10.6 years of operating earnings to repay net borrowings, above the 3× level most lenders treat as comfortable.
- **Altman Z-score: 0.55**. A Z-score of 0.55 is in the distress zone, a signal to examine the balance sheet closely.
- **Piotroski F-score: 4/9**. 4 of 9 checks pass: mixed.

## Dividends
- **Dividend: none**. Lionsgate Studios Corp does not currently pay a dividend.

## Price and momentum
- **Total return (1 yr): 80.2%** (YTD 22.3%, 3-mo -16.6%). The shares are up 80.2% over twelve months including dividends.
- **From 52-week high: -33.1%** (90.1% above the low). Trading 33% below its 52-week high, deep in a drawdown.
- **200-day average: above**. The price sits above its 200-day moving average, the usual definition of an uptrend.
- **RSI (14-day): 33**. An RSI of 33 is neutral.
- **Beta (1 yr): 0.88** (volatility 51%). Beta of 0.88 against the S&P 500: the shares move roughly with the market.
