Deep Analysis
The current free cash flow yield of -20.7% means the company is generating negative free cash flow relative to its stock price — in simple terms, it's burning cash rather than producing extra cash for shareholders.
This is far below the sector median of 4.2%, placing CG in the 3rd percentile among peers. Over the last eight quarters, the metric has been stable, though the year‑over‑year change is not available and the quarter‑over‑quarter change was -1.5%. The combination of a deeply negative yield with a flat trend signals persistent cash‑burn risk rather than any improvement. This directly supports the overall CAUTIOUS verdict — a negative free cash flow yield at the bottom of the sector is a clear red flag.
