Operating margin widened to 4.4% from -6.1%. Against its peers on growth, profitability, cash generation and balance sheet, it grades C. It passes 3 of our 3 financial-health checks. Our cash-flow model value is $8.53 a share, against a share price of $17.50. At that price, our model says the market is pricing in about 17.1% a year of cash-flow growth for five years, faster than the -2.8% a year revenue growth it has delivered.

The Fundamentalytics view

Next results ~November 10, 2026 (estimated)

Sonos Inc's trailing-twelve-month revenue grew 5.6% year on year, with a free-cash-flow margin of 8.4%. Where it stands out: gross margin of 46.5% ranks 2 of 11 consumer electronics companies we cover.

Our discounted-cash-flow model values the business at ~$8.8 per share in the base case (~$7.1–$11 across growth scenarios) — model values under stated assumptions, not a price target.

Current signal Revenue growth accelerating: TTM revenue growth rose to 5.6% (+5.9pp vs the prior quarter).

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

Strengths

  • Growth speeding up. The growth rate is 5.9 points higher than a quarter earlier.
  • Margins widening. Operating margin is up 10.5 points on a year ago.
  • Net cash. Cash exceeds long-term debt by $0.2bn.
  • Estimates rising. Analysts' consensus for next year's earnings per share has risen 22.0% over 90 days.

Things to watch

  • Results due soon. Results are expected around 4 November; the share price can move sharply on the day.
  • Priced above our value. The share price of $15.73 is 44% above our value per share of $9.
  • Volatile shares. Over the past year the shares showed annualised volatility of 47% and a beta of 1.1 against the S&P 500.
  • Below peers: stock pay as % of revenue. Stock pay as % of revenue of 4.3% ranks 7 of 9 consumer electronics companies we cover (median 2.8%).
  • Heavily shorted. 20.3% of the shares available to trade are sold short (6.9 days of average volume to cover).
  • Missing expectations. Earnings per share fell short of the consensus estimate in 2 of the last four quarters.

What the price is pricing in

The share price implies about 15.0% a year of cash-flow growth for five years.That is faster than the -2.8% a year revenue growth Sonos has delivered.

  • Priced in15.0%
  • Last 12 months5.6%
  • 3 years a year-3.7%
  • 5 years a year-2.8%

Our cash-flow model with every input fixed except growth over the next five years, solved for the growth at which the model value equals the share price ($15.88, Nov 3, 2026). Cash-flow growth then fades to 2.5% a year; discount rate 8.5%. Delivered figures are revenue growth from SEC filings.

How we got here: a discounted-cash-flow model of Sonos Inc's free cash flow after stock-based pay with after-tax interest added back ($49.7M, FY2026 Q3 TTM), growing 4.7% and 2.9% in the next two years (forecasts, guidance and its record), then back to 2% by year five, and fading to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5%. Lower and higher growth cases span ~$7.0–~$11 ; that spread sets a 15% margin before we rate Buy or Sell.

Produced by Fundamentalytics' automated valuation model on November 3, 2026, using delayed market prices. Rating meanings, methodology and conflicts: recommendations disclosure and research disclaimer. General research, not personal advice — it does not consider your circumstances. Prices can fall as well as rise.

Our value per share comes from a discounted-cash-flow model of Sonos Inc's free cash flow after stock-based pay ( $49.7M, FY2026 Q3 TTM, with after-tax interest added back): growth for five years as below (the first two years from forecasts, guidance and the company's record), fading to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5%, then cash added and debt and other claims subtracted. These are model values under stated assumptions, not price targets or recommendations.

Valuation models

We value Sonos Inc as an operating company, with every model that fits that kind of business. Cost of equity 10.9%: the 10-year Treasury yield (4.9%) plus a beta of 1.33 times a 4.5% equity risk premium.

Cash-flow model (DCF) Free cash flow to the firm (after stock pay, with after-tax interest added back), grown then faded to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5% as the firm rate, less debt and other claims. ~$8.8 ~$7.1–$11 Primary model, counts double
Price-to-earnings vs peers Earnings per share times peers' typical (harmonic-mean) price-to-earnings. — Does not apply: fewer than 5 peers with a usable multiple

Different models fail in different ways, so where several apply we average them rather than trust one.

Moat

66 /100

Moderate moat

How hard Sonos's competitive advantage looks for rivals to wear away, judged from 9 years of its own filings: returns on capital, pricing power, profit durability, cash conversion and discipline.

  • Returns on capital 20 / 20

    Cash operating profit has been a median 29.3% of total assets over 8 years.

  • Pricing power 15 / 20

    Gross margin has been a median 44.1%, moving by 2.1 percentage points (standard deviation) across 9 years.

  • Durability 10 / 20

    Operating margin has been a median -0.4%; its worst year was -6.1%.

  • Cash conversion 10 / 20

    Free cash flow was positive in 7 of 9 years, at a median 4.2% of revenue.

  • Discipline 16 / 20

    The diluted share count fell 6.9% over five years; stock-based pay has been a median 4.3% 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 (71 before it).

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

Forecasts and guidance

Next results: November 10, 2026, after the close. Analysts expect revenue of $340m and EPS of $0.05 (range $0.05 to $0.05) for the quarter.

How our valuation uses these forecasts

Our cash-flow model grows Sonos Inc's revenue by +4.7% next year and +2.9% the year after, then fades back toward its own record by year five. Next year's rate weighs analysts' consensus (+8.0%, weight 45%) and the company's own record (+2.0%, weight 55%) . How the weights are set.

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.

Options strategies

All options ideas

How Sonos Inc’s listed options are priced, and three ways to use them that follow from our valuation. Quotes are delayed, read November 2, 2026. Check the live chain at your broker before trading.

Cash-secured put

Not offered: rated Sell.

We suggest selling a put only on well-rated companies, at a strike where the price you would pay if assigned (strike less premium) is at or below our fair value.

Covered call

Not offered: no liquid call at or above our price target — the model says the upside is worth more than any listed strike.

For holders: sell a call at a strike at or above our fair value, so the shares are only sold at a price the model calls full value.

Collar

Not offered: no liquid put and call pair for the same expiry.

For holders of a stock trading at or above our fair value: buy a put for a floor and sell a call to pay for it.

General research, not personal advice. Options can lose you more than you expect and are not suitable for everyone: put sellers can be made to buy shares that keep falling, call sellers give up gains above the strike, and results or news can move prices sharply. Chances shown are approximations from each option’s delta. Spreads, fees and early assignment are not modelled.

Source: SEC EDGAR XBRL company facts (US and foreign periodic filings); column headings link to the filing. EBITDA is operating income plus depreciation and amortisation. 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.
