What the data says

An overview of the public data behind WBD.

At $27.80 as of September 21, 2026, WBD sits near the top of its 52-week band of $17.08 to $30.00 — about 7% below the high and roughly 63% above the low. A range that wide, with the current price clustered toward its upper end, describes a stock that has covered a great deal of ground over the past year rather than one that has traded quietly.

The market is assigning the company a capitalization of roughly $69.7 billion against a book value that implies a price-to-book of about 2.1. Earnings tell a different story than the share price: the trailing profit margin is negative at roughly -8.8%, and revenue has contracted about 11% year over year, so the business is currently unprofitable on a net basis and shrinking at the top line. The forward price-to-earnings figure of roughly 397 reflects that compressed earnings base — the multiple is a function of very thin expected profit rather than a normal earnings stream. A beta of 1.57 indicates the shares have historically moved appreciably more than the broad market in both directions.

Recent headline flow around the ticker is notable for what it is not about. The bulk of it concerns Netflix — an August gain, a drawdown from its high, and several longer-form pieces on its outlook — alongside commentary on Amazon's valuation relative to the S&P 500. These are streaming and large-cap technology stories that place WBD in a shared sector conversation rather than reporting on it directly. The one company-specific item is the August 5 launch of a Game of Thrones product with BetMGM in Alberta, following an earlier Ontario debut, which touches the licensing side of the business rather than its core streaming or studio operations.
