Deep Value: cash covers more than 100% of the stock price

This company holds roughly $146,624 in cash and investments — more than its entire stock-market value, based on its latest quarterly filing. You're paying very little for the actual business. Sometimes that's a genuine bargain or a takeover target, sometimes it's cheap for a reason. Not a buy signal on its own — always ask why it's this cheap.

Winston Score History

The full picture

CMG Holdings Group is a small entertainment and marketing company. It connects brands with audiences through talent management, live events, and experiential marketing campaigns. Its main customers are companies that want to advertise their products by sponsoring events or working with entertainers and influencers.

The company earns money by taking fees and commissions for arranging deals between brands, talent, and event organizers. It operates primarily in the United States and is a very small player in the broader advertising and entertainment industry, with a market cap near zero. The company currently loses money at the operating level, and its negative return on invested capital signals that expenses consistently outpace revenue — the main risk is whether it can scale revenue fast enough to reach profitability before running out of financial runway.

Cash watch

CMG Holdings Group has less than a year of cash at its current burn rate. Growth investors should watch for potential share dilution from future fundraising — that directly reduces your ownership.

The Winston Score above measures business quality today. Growth stocks often score lower because they invest in the future rather than maximising current profits. These metrics show what matters most for evaluating that future.
