Wild Bunch AG — Cyborg Score 4/10

Mixed
Film Distribution & TV Production (European)

Strategic Profile

Wild Bunch operates in two main business segments—Film Production and Distribution, and International Sales—with maximum revenue derived from Germany and supplementary revenue from France, Italy, Spain, and other regions. The company has expanded to include digital distribution capabilities alongside traditional film licensing. However, the company has negative shareholders equity, indicating financial challenges.

Cyborg Score Rationale

Wild Bunch exceeded both the German Entertainment industry return (-11.7%) and German Market return (14.9%) over the past year, demonstrating relative resilience. However, the company's current ROE is -66.18%, representing a 90.07% change from the average of prior quarters, and analyst coverage is minimal.

Top Insights

  • Earnings have grown 16.6% per year over the past 5 years despite balance sheet pressures
  • Share price volatility has decreased from 23% to 16% over the past year but remains higher than 75% of German stocks
  • Independent status and European focus provide differentiation in content acquisition and world sales
