Our note on each quarter Curiositystream files

Where Curiositystream stands after its latest 10-Q

Revenue for the twelve months to June 2026 was $76m, up 24.9% on a year earlier, slower than the 32.3% growth a quarter earlier. That growth ranks 1 of 17 among the movies & entertainment companies we cover. Free-cash-flow margin fell to 7.1% from 16.3% a year earlier. Operating margin widened to -0.3% from -10.8%. The diluted share count is up 3.3% on a year earlier, which dilutes existing holders. Against its peers on growth, profitability, cash generation and balance sheet, it grades D. It passes 1 of our 2 financial-health checks. Our revenue-to-maturity cash-flow model value is $2.29 a share, against a share price of $2.60.

Assembled from SEC-filed figures — the full workings are on this page and in our methodology. Observations, not recommendations.

Highlights

How we pick these

Strengths

  • Fast growth. Revenue grew 24.9% over the last 12 months, against a median of 8.5% for movies & entertainment companies we cover.
  • Margins widening. Operating margin is up 10.5 points on a year ago.
  • Estimates rising. Analysts' consensus for next year's earnings per share has risen 29.2% over 90 days.

Things to watch

  • Results due soon. Results are expected around 11 November; the share price can move sharply on the day.
  • Growth slowing. The growth rate is 7.4 points lower than a quarter earlier.
  • Loss-making. Operating margin is -0.3%: costs exceed revenue.
  • Heavy stock-based pay. Stock pay equals 20.3% of revenue, against a median of 1.5% for movies & entertainment companies we cover: a real cost that cash-flow figures leave out.
  • Share dilution. Diluted shares rose 3.3% in a year.
  • High earnings multiple. The shares trade at 6200 times the last 12 months' earnings, so expectations are demanding.

Valuation

Curiositystream Inc. valuation models and calculator

Fundamentalytics rating

model v1.6 · 2026-11-03

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

Valuation models

We value Curiositystream Inc. as an operating company, with every model that fits that kind of business. Cost of equity 9.9%: the 10-year Treasury yield (4.9%) plus a beta of 1.11 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. ~$2.6 ~$2.1–$3.3 Primary model, counts double
Price-to-earnings vs peers Earnings per share times peers' typical (harmonic-mean) price-to-earnings. ~$0.0 ~$0.0–$0.0 Left out: out of range vs price (0.00x)
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. ~$1.0 ~$0.7–$4.8 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. ~$2.3 ~$1.0–$2.6 2 models

Different models fail in different ways, so where several apply we average them rather than trust one. Peer-based models compare Curiositystream Inc. with Movies & Entertainment 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

18 /100

Weak moat

How hard Curiositystream's competitive advantage looks for rivals to wear away, judged from 6 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 -24.2% of total assets over 6 years.

  • Durability 10 / 20

    Operating margin has been a median -59.3%; its worst year was -107.1%.

  • Cash conversion 4 / 20

    Free cash flow was positive in 2 of 5 years, at a median -4.9% 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 (23 before it).

A rules-based reading of reported figures, not a forecast and not investment advice. How the score is built: methodology.
