USA TODAY Co., Inc. (TDAY) · 8 metrics scored
Smart Score
Category Performance
WallStSmart pulls financial metrics like revenue growth, profit margins, and valuation ratios and scores each one from 0 to 10 based on how strong or weak it is. Those 10 scores are grouped into 4 categories: Growth, Profitability, Valuation, and Quality — which form the 4 axes of the spider chart you see. The categories are then combined into a final score out of 100, but not equally. Growth and Profitability together count for 60% of the total, because a fast-growing profitable business matters more than just a cheap one. That final number maps to a rating (Strong Buy, Buy, Hold, Avoid) and a letter grade, giving you one clear Stock Rating.

Overall Assessment
This company scores 33/100 in our Smart Analysis, earning a F grade. Out of 8 metrics analyzed, 2 register as strengths (avg 10.0/10) while 6 fall into concern territory (avg 2.3/10). The category breakdown reveals uneven performance, with some areas requiring attention.
The Bull Case
The strongest argument centers on Price/Sales, Institutional Own.. Valuation metrics including Price/Sales (0.43) suggest the stock is attractively priced.
The Bear Case
The primary concerns are Revenue Growth, Return on Equity, Price/Book. Some valuation metrics including Price/Book (6.11) suggest expensive pricing. Growth concerns include Revenue Growth at -5.80%, which may limit upside. Profitability pressure is visible in Return on Equity at 1.14%, Operating Margin at 12.20%, Profit Margin at 0.08%.
Key Dynamics to Monitor
Three factors to monitor going forward. First, whether Revenue Growth improves, as this is the primary drag on the overall score. Second, margin trajectory, with Return on Equity at 1.14% needing improvement to support the investment thesis. Third, growth sustainability, with Revenue Growth at -5.80% needing to reaccelerate.
Risk Considerations
Based on the metric profile, this is a higher risk investment. There are more areas of concern than strength, warranting a more conservative position size. Investors should size positions according to their risk tolerance and maintain diversification.
Bottom Line
Fundamental challenges outweigh strengths at current levels. Revenue Growth and Return on Equity are the primary drags. Consider waiting for meaningful improvement before committing capital.
