## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 20.8×** (5-yr avg 112.3×, 3-yr avg 19.9×). OUTFRONT Media Inc. trades at 20.8× trailing earnings, well below its own five-year average of 112.3×: cheap by its own standards. The Real Estate median in the September 2026 study was 25.2×. Forward P/E is 19.1×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.
- **Price / sales: 2.6×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 2.6×.
- **Price / book: 7.4×**. The shares trade at 7.4× book value; most of the value is in earnings power and intangibles rather than the balance sheet.
- **EV / EBITDA: 13.8×**. Enterprise value is 13.8× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 5.9%** (5-yr avg 6.2%). Free cash flow equals 5.9% of the market value, in line with its five-year average of 6.2%. Above 5% is generally attractive.
- **Earnings yield: 4.8%**. The inverse of the P/E: 4.8% of the price is earned each year.

## Profitability

- **Net margin: 8.0%**. 8.0% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: 20.7%**. 20.7% on shareholders' equity is excellent if it is not driven by leverage; sustained above 20% usually signals a competitive advantage.

- **Return on assets: 4.6%**. Each dollar of assets produces 4.6% of profit.

## Growth

- **EPS growth (1 yr): -45.7%** (3-yr -0.4%/yr). Earnings per share fell 45.7%, slower than revenue, so margins compressed.
- **Free-cash-flow growth (3 yr): 10.0%/yr**. Free cash flow has compounded at 10.0% a year over three years, keeping pace with earnings: the growth is real cash.

## Financial health
- **Debt to equity: 3.64**. Debt is 3.64 times equity, a leveraged balance sheet, which is normal for real estate.
- **Net debt / EBITDA: 4.5×**. It would take 4.5 years of operating earnings to repay net borrowings, above the 3× level most lenders treat as comfortable.
- **Altman Z-score: 1.38**. A Z-score of 1.38 is in the distress zone, a signal to examine the balance sheet closely.
