Earnings Quality Low Quality

0.24x

For every $1 of reported earnings, Kustom Entertainment Inc generates $0.24 in operating cash flow (-$5.1M OCF vs -$21.7M net income). This low ratio suggests earnings are primarily driven by accounting accruals rather than cash generation, which may not be sustainable.

Interest Coverage At Risk

-4.0x

Kustom Entertainment Inc earns $-4.0 in operating income for every $1 of interest expense (-$15.2M vs $3.8M). This narrow margin raises concern about the company's ability to service its debt if operating income declines.
