Executive Summary

Our quantitative model flags Bally's Corp with an Avoid rating, assigning a composite score of 35.5/100 and 1 out of 5 stars. Ranked #4063 of 7,333 stocks, BALY falls in the bottom tier across key factors. Historically, stocks with this profile have faced elevated risk of underperformance and capital loss.

Business Quality

Bally's Corp registers a weak quality score of just 24/100, indicating significant profitability challenges. The company reports a return on equity of -114.8% (sector avg: 9.6%), gross margins of 56.0% (sector avg: 37.3%), net margins of -23.2% (sector avg: 2.4%). Low quality scores are often associated with businesses in turnaround mode, early-stage growth, or structurally challenged industries.

Intrinsic Valuation

BALY registers a value score of just 24/100, suggesting the stock trades at a significant premium to its fundamental metrics. Key valuation metrics include an EV/EBITDA of 38.35x, a P/B ratio of 1.36x. High-premium valuations like this require strong future execution to avoid multiple compression, and downside risk is elevated if growth disappoints.

Capital Reinvestment

Bally's Corp's investment score of 34/100 suggests limited reinvestment activity. Key growth metrics include revenue growth of 6.8% vs. a sector average of 3.7% and a return on assets of -7.9% (sector: 3.6%). While this can be positive for mature, cash-generative businesses returning capital to shareholders, it may also signal a lack of growth opportunities or management conservatism.

Market Momentum

BALY demonstrates moderate momentum with a score of 60/100, suggesting a neutral price trend without strong directional conviction. Revenue growth stands at 6.8% year-over-year, while a beta of 1.32 reflects its sensitivity to broader market moves. Moderate momentum may indicate the stock is consolidating or transitioning between trends, warranting close monitoring of upcoming catalysts.

Balance Sheet Health

BALY's stability score of 28/100 signals elevated volatility and/or leverage concerns. Key stability metrics include a beta of 1.32 and a debt-to-equity ratio of 717.00x (sector avg: 0.7x). Investors should be prepared for wider-than-average price swings and consider position sizing accordingly to manage portfolio risk.

Institutional Risk Profile

Bally's Corp's short interest score of 13/100 reveals significant bearish positioning, suggesting institutional investors are actively betting against the stock. Specific risk factors include above-average market sensitivity (beta: 1.32), elevated leverage (D/E: 717.00x), small-cap liquidity risk. At $545M (small-cap), BALY carries meaningful risk and is best suited for investors with high risk tolerance who have thoroughly evaluated the bear thesis.

Sector Benchmark Analysis

Bally's Corp is a small-cap company in the Retail Trade sector, ranked #0 of 50 in its sector (100th percentile) and #4063 of 7,333 overall (45th percentile). Key comparisons include ROE of -114.8% trailing the 9.6% sector median and operating margins of -7.3% below the 4.4% sector average. This top-quartile standing reflects exceptional competitive strength relative to Retail Trade peers.
