A Discounted Cash Flow model estimates what a business is worth today by projecting the cash it could generate in the future and then discounting those cash flows back to their value in the present.
For fuboTV, the model starts with last twelve months Free Cash Flow of about $122.4 Million, but expects a dip to roughly negative $105.0 Million in 2024 as the company continues investing in growth. From there, Simply Wall St extrapolates analyst expectations and projects a sharp recovery, with Free Cash Flow rising to around $1.21 Billion by 2035, still expressed in today’s dollars after discounting.
Using a 2 Stage Free Cash Flow to Equity model, these projected cash flows translate into an estimated intrinsic value of about $11.63 per share. Compared with the recent share price near $2.68, the DCF suggests the stock is roughly 76.9% undervalued. This indicates that the market is heavily discounting fuboTV’s long term cash generation potential.
Result: UNDERVALUED

For companies that are generating earnings, the price to earnings ratio is often the cleanest way to gauge what investors are willing to pay for each dollar of profit. It helps translate expectations about future growth and risk into a single, comparable number across many different businesses.
In general, faster growing and more stable companies can justify a higher PE ratio, while slower growing or riskier names tend to deserve a lower one. fuboTV currently trades on a PE of about 7.46x, which sits well below the Interactive Media and Services industry average of roughly 16.57x and also below the peer group average of around 12.61x. On these simple comparisons alone, the stock looks inexpensive relative to its sector.
Simply Wall St also applies a proprietary Fair Ratio framework, which estimates what a more tailored PE should be once factors like earnings growth potential, business risks, profit margins, industry dynamics and market cap are all taken into account. This is more informative than just lining fuboTV up against broad industry or peer averages because it adjusts for the company’s specific profile rather than assuming a one size fits all benchmark. In this case, the Fair Ratio still sits meaningfully higher than the current 7.46x PE, pointing to material upside from today’s valuation.
Result: UNDERVALUED

Earlier we mentioned that there is an even better way to understand valuation, so let us introduce you to Narratives, a simple way to attach your own story about a company to the numbers behind its fair value, including your assumptions for future revenue, earnings and margins.
A Narrative links three key pieces together: what you believe about the business, how that belief flows through a financial forecast, and the fair value that falls out the other side. This helps you see in one place why a stock might appear cheap or expensive under your specific view of the future.
On Simply Wall St, Narratives live in the Community page. Millions of investors use them as an easy and accessible tool to track their thesis, compare their Fair Value estimate with the current share price to consider whether to buy, hold or sell, and then watch that view update dynamically as fresh news, earnings and other data come in.
For example, one fuboTV Narrative might lean on sports-focused bundles, improved ad technology and margin gains to support a fair value near the more bullish 5.00 analyst target. A more cautious Narrative might instead focus on subscriber losses, content deal risk and cash burn, resulting in a fair value closer to the 4.25 bearish target.
