The financial-health reading above compares this company's equity at BOOK value, not at what the market currently pays for it — this free snapshot doesn't pull live market data. Treat it as a rough read, not the final word.
This free snapshot doesn't read filing or proxy text, so the auditor-quality and governance checks that can lower a grade were not evaluated (red flags, auditor quality, say on pay, board independence). Those checks only ever lower a grade, so the full analysis can land below the grade above but never above it — treat it as the most favourable reading, not the settled one.
Super League Enterprise, Inc. earns a D (Weak — demands caution) forensic quality grade, and its balance-sheet distress test reads -38.8, placing it in the Distress zone (based on book value, not market value, since this free snapshot doesn't pull live market data — treat this zone as a rough read, not the final word). 5 forensic signals were flagged in its latest SEC filings, led by return on invested capital.
What the filings flag
-214.9%
FY2025
Return on invested capital.Return on invested capital is -214.9% in the latest fiscal year and slipping from -26% — below its ~10% cost of capital. If that gap persists through the cycle, incremental reinvestment reduces rather than creates value per share.
20% of rev
FY2025
Stock-based comp load.Stock-based compensation ran 20% of revenue in FY2025 — about $4.69 per basic share. No cash left the business to pay it, which is why operating cash flow adds it back. Net of repurchases the basic count still rose about 47.7% a year and that rate is not falling, so total profit has to grow by that much annually before any of it reaches a share. Stock compensation is one source of that issuance; acquisition consideration, equity raises, convertibles and other employee plans also net into the count, and these figures do not separate them.
n/m (sign flip)
FY2024→FY2025
Accruals ratio (% of NOA).Net operating assets flipped from negative to positive FY2024→FY2025 (FY2024 $-1.1M to FY2025 $+4.6M) — the standard accruals ratio divides by the average of the two, which collapses toward zero right as the sign changes, so the resulting percentage is a denominator artifact, not a real accrual measurement. Treat this as a structural balance-sheet shift to understand on its own terms rather than a clean or dirty accruals read.
n/m (stock split)
FY2022–FY2025
Share count (stock split).Diluted share count changed -73% over the last 3 years to FY2025, but that includes a large one-time change around FY2024 consistent with a stock split or reverse split, not gradual buybacks or issuance — a split changes the count with NO effect on any holder's proportional ownership, so the raw -35.8%/yr figure isn't a real buyback/dilution read here.
