Appears in These Scanners

This stock currently matches 9 of our scanner strategies — each hit links to the scanner.

Only genuine hits from verified scanners count; pure ranking metrics (P/E, P/S, and similar, which just sort the whole universe) don't count as a hit. Scanners marked in red are red-flag signals (risk/short scanners) — appearing there is not a seal of approval. View all scanners

Neutral

In den letzten 4 Quartalsberichten (10-Q) und 2 Jahresberichten (10-K) von EchoStar findet sich kein wesentlicher KI-Bezug: keine KI-Umsatzquelle, kein dokumentierter operativer KI-Einsatz, kein konkretes KI-Geschäftsrisiko. Die einzigen Erwähnungen sind zwei generische Risiko-Floskeln im 10-K — die allgemeine Anpassungs-Klausel („In order to grow and remain competitive, we will need to adapt to changes in available technology, including, but not limited to, artificial intelligence and machine learning, continually invest in our Hybrid MNO…“, 10-K 2025, Item 1A) und die Cybersecurity-Floskel („Techniques used in cyber-attacks … are increasingly diverse and sophisticated, including as a result of emerging technologies, such as artificial intelligence and machine learning“, 10-K 2025, Item 1A). Beide Passagen stehen wortgleich bzw. nahezu wortgleich bereits im 10-K 2024; in den vier ausgewerteten Quartalsberichten (Q1–Q3 2025, Q1 2026) kommt KI überhaupt nicht vor.

What Do These Terms Mean?
EPS (Earnings Per Share):
Quarterly profit divided by the total share count — how much of the profit works out to a single share.
YoY (Year over Year):
Change versus the same quarter a year ago — this is how you compare without seasonal distortion (e.g. the holiday shopping season).
Sales:
All revenue for the quarter, before any costs are deducted — the top line of the income statement.
Net Margin:
What percentage of sales is left over as profit in the end. Negative means the company is posting a loss.
OCF (Operating Cash Flow):
The cash that actually flows into the till from the core business during the quarter — harder to dress up than book profit.
FCF (Free Cash Flow):
Operating cash flow minus capital expenditures — the money that's genuinely free to use, say for paying down debt, buybacks, or dividends.
