Not a good buy right now: price is sitting on support (~2.98) but momentum is still bearish (MACD histogram negative and worsening).
No Intellectia edge today: AI Stock Picker = no signal; SwingMax = no recent signal, so there’s no proprietary “strong buy” confirmation.
Upside catalyst exists (new Latino-focused station launch), but near-term fundamentals (losses + margin compression) don’t support an aggressive entry before earnings (2026-03-05).
Best stance right now: hold / do not chase a buy until price reclaims the pivot (~3.13) with improving momentum.

Technical Analysis

Trend/Momentum: MACD histogram -0.0322 and negatively expanding → bearish momentum is strengthening.
RSI: RSI(6) at 27.23 → oversold conditions, which can produce bounces, but not a confirmed reversal by itself.
Moving averages: converging MAs → consolidation, but currently not signaling an uptrend resumption.
Key levels: Support S1 ~2.98 (price ~2.99 is right on it), next support S2 ~2.885; resistance/pivot ~3.132 then R1 ~3.285.
Tactical read: risk of a support break is meaningful while MACD deteriorates; a more “buyable” setup would be a reclaim/hold above ~3.13.

Options Data

Bullish

Open Interest Put-Call Ratio

Bullish

Option Volume Put-Call Ratio

Positioning/Sentiment: Open Interest put/call ratio 0.23 → call-heavy OI (bullish tilt), but today’s volume is very light (30 contracts), so conviction is limited.
Volatility: IV 30D ~151.1 vs historical vol ~32.36; IV percentile ~90 → options imply very high uncertainty (and premium), often seen around event risk or stressed pricing.
Activity: Call volume reported 0 and put volume 30 (put/call volume ratio 0.0 per feed) → flow is inconsistent/low-liquidity; treat options signals as weak.

Technical Summary

Positive Catalysts

- 2026-02-02: Launch of WAPA Orlando with Hemisphere Media Group to serve the Latino (notably Puerto Rican) audience in Central Florida.
- 80 hours/week of original content + expanded local news coverage could support audience growth and local ad/digital engagement.
- Entravision managing the station’s digital strategy may lift digital monetization if execution is strong.

Neutral/Negative Catalysts

- Price action remains weak (regular session -1.81%) and momentum is still bearish (MACD worsening) despite being near support.
- Extremely high implied volatility suggests the market is pricing elevated uncertainty.
- Earnings timing: next report 2026-03-05 (after hours) can be a major directional catalyst; current setup lacks confirmation into that window.

Financial Performance

Latest reported quarter: 2025/Q3.
Revenue: $120.63M, +24.16% YoY (top-line growth improved).
Profitability: Net income -$9.659M (still a loss; down -19.37% YoY).
EPS: -0.11 (down -15.38% YoY).
Margins: Gross margin 20.95%, down -34.04% YoY → cost/mix pressure is a key concern despite revenue growth.

Practical pro view (inferred from available data): revenue growth and new market/content initiatives could be seen as rebuilding catalysts.
Practical con view (inferred from available data): ongoing losses and sharp gross margin deterioration are likely to keep many pros cautious until profitability stabilizes.
