# WildBrain Ltd. (WILD.TO) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-09-08. TSX, Canada. Sector: Communication Services / Entertainment. Price C$1.70, market value C$363 million.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): n/a** (negative earnings). WildBrain Ltd. 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.
- **PEG: 6.42**. A PEG of 6.42 means the P/E is high relative to expected earnings growth; the price already assumes a lot.
- **Price / sales: 0.9×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 0.9×, a low multiple typical of thin-margin businesses or out-of-favour stocks.
- **Price / book: 1.3×**. The shares trade at 1.3× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **EV / EBITDA: 13.5×**. Enterprise value is 13.5× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 15.4%** (5-yr avg 21.9%). Free cash flow equals 15.4% of the market value, below its five-year average of 21.9%, so the shares are pricier on cash than usual. Above 5% is generally attractive.

## Profitability
- **Gross margin: 47.8%**. WildBrain Ltd. keeps 47.8% of revenue after the direct cost of what it sells.
- **Operating margin: 19.2%**. 19.2% of revenue is left after running the business, a healthy level in most sectors.
- **Net margin: -17.2%**. The company reported a net loss over the last twelve months.
- **Return on equity: 101.3%**. A 101.3% return on equity is extremely high; check whether buybacks or debt have shrunk the equity base, which flatters the ratio.
- **Return on invested capital: 18.0%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is 18.0%: comfortably above what that capital costs.
- **Return on assets: 42.6%**. Each dollar of assets produces 42.6% of profit.

## Growth
- **Revenue growth (1 yr): 13.3%** (3-yr 1.0%/yr, 5-yr 4.2%/yr). Revenue grew 13.3% over the last year, against 4.2% a year compounded over five years: growth is accelerating.
- **EPS growth (1 yr): 17.6%**. Earnings per share rose 17.6%, roughly in step with revenue.
- **Free-cash-flow growth (3 yr): 63.7%/yr**. Free cash flow has compounded at 63.7% a year over three years.

## Financial health
- **Net debt / EBITDA: 7.8×**. It would take 7.8 years of operating earnings to repay net borrowings, above the 3× level most lenders treat as comfortable.
- **Interest coverage: 1.1×**. Operating profit covers interest only 1.1×: fragile.
- **Current ratio: 1.25** (quick 0.96). Current assets cover the next year's liabilities 1.25 times.
- **Altman Z-score: 1.17**. A Z-score of 1.17 is in the distress zone, a signal to examine the balance sheet closely.
- **Piotroski F-score: 5/9**. 5 of 9 checks pass: mixed.

## Dividends
- **Dividend: none**. WildBrain Ltd. does not currently pay a dividend, but it returned 0.2% of its market value through buybacks over the last year.

## Analyst view
- **Analyst consensus: hold** (3 analysts). 3 analysts cover WildBrain Ltd.; the consensus is hold, with an average price target of C$1.82 (+7% from the current price). Analyst opinion is shown for context; it is not part of the Fundamental Score.

## Price and momentum

- **From 52-week high: -23.8%** (53.2% above the low). Trading 24% below its 52-week high.
- **200-day average: above**. The price sits above its 200-day moving average, the usual definition of an uptrend.
- **RSI (14-day): 72**. An RSI of 72 is in overbought territory; short-term pullbacks are common from here.
- **Beta (1 yr): 0.57** (volatility 65%). Beta of 0.57 against the S&P/TSX Composite: the shares move much less than the market.
