Financial Health Signals
Based on FY2024 annual data. Scores normalized against common benchmarks. How we calculate these scores
Urban One has an operating margin of -16.8%, meaning the company retains $-17 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 down from -6.6% the prior year.
Urban One's revenue declined 5.9% year-over-year, from $477.7M to $449.7M. This contraction results in a growth score of 12/100.
Urban One has elevated debt relative to equity (D/E of 3.39), meaning the company relies heavily on borrowed funds. This high leverage results in a low score of 0/100, reflecting increased financial risk.
With a current ratio of 2.67, Urban One holds $2.67 in current assets for every $1 of short-term obligations. This comfortable liquidity earns a score of 87/100.
Urban One has a free cash flow margin of 6.7%, earning a moderate score of 34/100. The company generates positive cash flow after capital investments, but with room for improvement.
Urban One passes 3 of 9 financial strength tests. 2 of 4 profitability signals pass, no leverage/liquidity signals pass (rising debt, declining liquidity, or share dilution), both operating efficiency signals pass.
For every $1 of reported earnings, Urban One generates $-0.36 in operating cash flow ($37.5M OCF vs -$105.4M net income). This mixed ratio suggests some earnings may rely on non-cash accounting items.
Urban One earns $-1.6 in operating income for every $1 of interest expense (-$75.6M vs $48.6M). This narrow margin raises concern about the company's ability to service its debt if operating income declines.
