## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): n/a** (negative earnings). PENN 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: 0.3×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 0.3×, a low multiple typical of thin-margin businesses or out-of-favour stocks.
- **Price / book: 1.2×**. The shares trade at 1.2× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.

## Profitability
- **Operating margin: -7.9%**. Operating margin is negative: the business loses money before interest and tax.
- **Net margin: -12.1%**. The company reported a net loss over the last twelve months.
- **Return on equity: -46.0%**. Return on equity is negative because earnings are negative.
- **Return on invested capital: -11.1%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is -11.1%: close to or below the cost of capital, so growth may not create value.
- **Return on assets: -6.4%**. Each dollar of assets produces -6.4% of profit.

## Growth
- **Revenue growth (1 yr): 5.8%** (3-yr 2.8%/yr, 5-yr 14.2%/yr). Revenue grew 5.8% over the last year, against 14.2% a year compounded over five years: growth is slowing.

- **Current ratio: 0.79** (quick 0.79). Current liabilities exceed current assets, so the company depends on ongoing cash generation or refinancing to pay the next year's bills.
