Data as of 2026-09-08. NYSE, United States. Sector: Communication Services / Diversified Telecommunication Services. Price $14.42, market value $36.1 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 10.9×** (5-yr avg 7.9×, 3-yr avg 7.9×). Venture Global Inc. trades at 10.9× trailing earnings, well above its own five-year average of 7.9×: investors are paying up relative to the company's past. The Communication Services median in the September 2026 study was 21.1×. Forward P/E is 14.5×, higher than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to fall.
- **PEG: 0.28**. A PEG of 0.28 means the P/E is low relative to expected earnings growth: the market is not paying much for that growth.
- **Price / sales: 2.1×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 2.1×.
- **Price / book: 4.2×**. The shares trade at 4.2× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **EV / EBITDA: 9.2×**. Enterprise value is 9.2× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: -19.4%** (5-yr avg -37.9%). Free cash flow is negative: the business is consuming cash, which is normal for heavy investment phases but a warning otherwise.
- **Earnings yield: 9.2%**. The inverse of the P/E: 9.2% of the price is earned each year.

- **Net margin: 19.8%**. 19.8% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.

## Financial health
- **Debt to equity: 5.07**. Debt is 5.07 times equity, a leveraged balance sheet that needs steady cash flow to service.
- **Net debt / EBITDA: 4.3×**. It would take 4.3 years of operating earnings to repay net borrowings, above the 3× level most lenders treat as comfortable.
- **Altman Z-score: 1.27**. A Z-score of 1.27 is in the distress zone, a signal to examine the balance sheet closely.
- **Piotroski F-score: 6/9**. 6 of 9 checks pass: mixed.
