Based on FY2025 annual data. Scores normalized against common benchmarks. How we calculate these scores
Sohu Com Ltd has an operating margin of -16.1%, meaning the company retains $-16 of operating profit per $100 of revenue. This below-average margin results in a low score of 0/100, suggesting thin profitability after operating expenses. This is up from -18.3% the prior year.

Sohu Com Ltd carries a low D/E ratio of 0.28, meaning only $0.28 of long-term debt for every $1 of shareholders' equity. This conservative leverage earns a score of 96/100, indicating a strong balance sheet with room for future borrowing.
Sohu Com Ltd's current ratio of 2.90 indicates adequate short-term liquidity, earning a score of 55/100. The company can meet its near-term obligations, though with limited headroom.
While Sohu Com Ltd generated -$4.8M in operating cash flow, capex of $576K consumed most of it, leaving -$5.3M in free cash flow. This results in a low score of 23/100, reflecting heavy capital investment rather than weak cash generation.
Sohu Com Ltd earns a strong 30.8% return on equity (ROE), meaning it generates $31 of profit for every $100 of shareholders' equity. This efficient capital use earns a returns score of 80/100. This is up from -10.9% the prior year.

For every $1 of reported earnings, Sohu Com Ltd generates $-0.01 in operating cash flow (-$4.8M OCF vs $394.1M net income). This low ratio suggests earnings are primarily driven by accounting accruals rather than cash generation, which may not be sustainable.
