Frequently asked questions
What is Emerald Expositions Events Inc's revenue?
Emerald Expositions Events Inc's trailing twelve-month revenue is $471.10M. Revenue is the top line the whole model builds on, and at this scale the question shifts from how fast it grows to whether margins hold as it compounds.
How profitable is EEX?
In its most recent fiscal year, EEX ran a gross margin of 56.91%, an operating margin of 18.28%, and a net margin of -6.62%. Margins this high mean most of each extra dollar of revenue drops through to profit, which is the signature of real pricing power.
How much free cash flow does EEX generate?
EEX produced $41.40M in free cash flow in its most recent fiscal year. Free cash flow is what is left after running and reinvesting in the business, and it is the cash that actually funds buybacks, dividends, and a stronger balance sheet.
Is EEX's balance sheet healthy?
EEX holds $194.80M in cash and equivalents against $398.50M in long-term debt, on $385.90M of shareholder equity. That debt is best read against the cash flow the business throws off each year.
