Kartoon Studios Inc (TOON) Fair Value & Analysis

Communication Services · US · Market cap $47.3M

Below-average quality, and screening another 57% overvalued on our models.

What matters now

• The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($0.3740). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
• Weak quality (30/100) and above fair value at the same time, the margin of safety is missing on both counts.
• The large gap to fair value rests on thin data (low evidence): fewer applicable models and a shorter history. Read it with extra caution.
• A fairly wide model range ($0.1870 to $0.3740) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis

Kartoon Studios Inc (TOON) currently trades at $0.5907, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $0.2550, implying the stock looks roughly 56.8% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 30/100 (below-average quality), in the Communication Services sector. Bear case: priced above our estimate, the market already discounts strong expectations. Bull case: above-average quality can justify a premium, the entry price still matters most (evidence: low).

Over the trailing twelve months, Kartoon Studios Inc generated revenue of $37.1M at a net margin of -65.7%. Revenue declined 23.8% year over year. It earns a return on equity of -93.1%. Net debt stands at $14.7M. Fundamentals as of Jul 24, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $0.1870 (bear case) to $0.3740 (bull case); at $0.5907, the current price sits above that range. Bear and bull are the same models run on conservative and optimistic assumptions (margins, growth, valuation multiples), so a plausible valuation range, not a price target. The share trades about 54% below its 52-week high and 11% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Communication Services peers we cover trades at -52% fair-value upside, at -57%, TOON screens richer than that median.

Fair Value models

Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted blend. Evidence (0–100) measures how completely this model’s inputs are available: well-fed models carry more weight in the blend. The spread across models is intentional, each one stresses a different value driver; dividend models, for instance, come out structurally low when payout is small.
