# Starz Entertainment Corp. (STRZ) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-11-04. NASDAQ, United States. Sector: Communication Services / Entertainment. Price $23.36, market value $403 million.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): n/a** (negative earnings). Starz Entertainment 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.
- **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: 1.5×**. The shares trade at 1.5× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 4.2%**. Free cash flow equals 4.2% of the market value.

## Profitability
- **Operating margin: -30.5%**. Operating margin is negative: the business loses money before interest and tax.
- **Net margin: -15.4%**. The company reported a net loss over the last twelve months.
- **Return on equity: -27.6%**. Return on equity is negative because earnings are negative.
- **Return on invested capital: -21.0%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is -21.0%: close to or below the cost of capital, so growth may not create value.
- **Return on assets: -20.3%**. Each dollar of assets produces -20.3% of profit.

## Growth
- **Revenue growth (1 yr): -1.6%** (3-yr -27.6%/yr, 5-yr -18.8%/yr). Revenue fell 1.6% over the last year, against -18.8% a year compounded over five years: growth is accelerating.
- **EPS growth (1 yr): 76.9%**. Earnings per share rose 76.9%, faster than revenue, so margins expanded or the share count shrank.

- **Net debt / EBITDA: net cash**. Starz Entertainment Corp. holds more cash than debt.
- **Current ratio: 0.27** (quick 0.27). Current liabilities exceed current assets, so the company depends on ongoing cash generation or refinancing to pay the next year's bills.
