Data as of 2026-09-08. NYSE, United States. Sector: Consumer Cyclical / Hotels, Restaurants & Leisure. Price $1.71, market value $330 million.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): n/a** (negative earnings). Studio City International Holdings Limited American 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: 0.7×**. The shares trade below book value, which can signal a bargain or a balance sheet the market doubts.
- **EV / EBITDA: 7.9×**. Enterprise value is 7.9× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed; below 8× is inexpensive for most sectors.

## Profitability
- **Gross margin: 69.3%**. Studio City International Holdings Limited American keeps 69.3% of revenue after the direct cost of what it sells, the kind of margin that comes with software, brands or pricing power.
- **Operating margin: 10.9%**. 10.9% of revenue is left after running the business.
- **Net margin: -8.5%**. The company reported a net loss over the last twelve months.
- **Return on equity: -11.2%**. Return on equity is negative because earnings are negative.
- **Return on invested capital: 3.0%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is 3.0%: close to or below the cost of capital, so growth may not create value.
- **Return on assets: -1.8%**. Each dollar of assets produces -1.8% of profit.

## Growth
- **Revenue growth (1 yr): 8.7%** (3-yr 291.8%/yr, 5-yr 69.8%/yr). Revenue grew 8.7% over the last year, against 69.8% a year compounded over five years: growth is slowing.

## Financial health
- **Debt to equity: 3.86**. Debt is 3.86 times equity, a leveraged balance sheet that needs steady cash flow to service.
- **Net debt / EBITDA: 6.8×**. It would take 6.8 years of operating earnings to repay net borrowings, above the 3× level most lenders treat as comfortable.
- **Interest coverage: 0.6×**. Operating profit covers interest only 0.6×: fragile.
- **Altman Z-score: 0.68**. A Z-score of 0.68 is in the distress zone, a signal to examine the balance sheet closely.
- **Piotroski F-score: 4/9**. 4 of 9 checks pass: mixed.

- **RSI (14-day): 43**. An RSI of 43 is neutral.
