Our note on each quarter Buzzfeed files

Where Buzzfeed stands after its latest 10-Q

Revenue for the twelve months to June 2026 was $171m, down 12.1% on a year earlier, a steeper fall than the 4.3% decline a quarter earlier. That puts it 27 of 29 for growth among the interactive media & services companies we cover. Free-cash-flow margin fell to -9.8% from -2.6% a year earlier. Operating margin narrowed to -31.9% from -6.0%. The diluted share count is up 9.5% on a year earlier, which dilutes existing holders. Against its peers on growth, profitability, cash generation and balance sheet, it grades E. It passes 2 of our 7 financial-health checks. Our revenue-to-maturity cash-flow model value is $1.79 a share, against a share price of $0.99.

Not rated: only 2 valuation models apply; a rating needs 3.

Valuation models

We value Buzzfeed, Inc. as an operating company, with every model that fits that kind of business. Cost of equity 11%: the 10-year Treasury yield (4.9%) plus a beta of 1.35 times a 4.5% equity risk premium.

Value per share by model
Model Value per share In the combined value?
Revenue-to-maturity model Revenue grown to maturity with the cash margin moving to the industry's; for companies not yet profitable. ~$2.1 ~$2.1–$3.0 Primary model, counts double
Price-to-earnings vs peers Earnings per share times peers' typical (harmonic-mean) price-to-earnings. — Does not apply: no positive earnings in the latest twelve months
Residual income Book value plus the present value of returns above the cost of equity, fading over ten years. — Does not apply: the model gives no positive value
Justified price-to-book Book value times (return on equity - growth) / (cost of equity - growth): steady-state returns. — Does not apply: return on equity is not positive
Price-to-sales vs peers Sales per share times peers' typical price-to-sales; used only when earnings are negative. ~$0.9 ~$1.9–$8.4 Included, half weight
Combined value Weighted average of the models that apply: the primary model (revenue-to-maturity model) counts double. Models more than 5x or less than 0.2x the share price, or more than 3x away from the other models' median, are left out. ~$1.9 ~$0.9–$2.1 2 models

Different models fail in different ways, so where several apply we average them rather than trust one. Peer-based models compare Buzzfeed, Inc. with Interactive Media & Services in our coverage, using third-party market data. Model values are estimates under stated assumptions, updated as new filings arrive; not price targets or investment advice. How each model works.

Moat

12 /100

Weak moat

How hard Buzzfeed's competitive advantage looks for rivals to wear away, judged from 5 years of its own filings: returns on capital, pricing power, profit durability, cash conversion and discipline.

  • Returns on capital 0 / 20

    Net income has been a median -24.9% of total assets over 5 years.

  • Durability 10 / 20

    Operating margin has been a median -17.2%; its worst year was -39.0%.

  • Cash conversion 0 / 20

    Free cash flow was positive in 0 of 5 years, at a median -6.1% of revenue.

AI disruption exposure: Medium. In this industry, AI could change how the product is made or sold, without replacing the core asset. The score above includes a 5-point deduction for that exposure (17 before it).

Consensus figures average analysts' published estimates (third-party data); guidance is the company's own. Neither is our forecast. Short interest is reported twice a month and lags. Market data may be delayed.

Free cash flow is cash from operations minus capital spending. Growth is left blank when last year's figure was a loss or under 2% of revenue. Share counts and EPS are restated for stock splits. A dash means the company didn't report the figure.
