NXSTNexstar Media Group, Inc.
Is the price fair?
Neither cheap nor expensive: modest expectations priced in, but at the top of its own P/E range.
Priced for a decline (~−10% a year). The price demands less than its three-year revenue growth of 4% a year, expectations look modest.
Expensive vs its own history: P/E 30.6 vs a 8.7 median over 41 quarters (+251% vs median).
Sector median 16.8× across 43 covered peers. EV/EBIT counts debt as part of the price, so a cash-rich and a borrowed company can be compared on the same footing.
Unless marked, from derived, as of Jun 30, 2026.
