The companys negative return on equity (RoE) indicates that it is currently unprofitable, which may be a concern for investors. Other KPIs to monitor include the companys cash burn rate, operating expenses as a percentage of revenue, and the ratio of debt to equity.

To further evaluate CuriosityStreams prospects, its essential to analyze its content library, content acquisition strategy, and the effectiveness of its marketing efforts.
