Financial Profile 25/100

Based on FY2024 annual data. Scores normalized against common benchmarks. How we calculate these scores

Profitability

Urban One Inc 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.

Growth

Urban One Inc's revenue declined 5.9% year-over-year, from $477.7M to $449.7M. This contraction results in a growth score of 24/100.

Leverage

Urban One Inc has a moderate D/E ratio of 3.39. This balance of debt and equity financing earns a leverage score of 33/100.

Liquidity

Earnings Quality Mixed

-0.36x

For every $1 of reported earnings, Urban One Inc 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.

Interest Coverage At Risk

-1.6x

Urban One Inc 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.
