Sirius XM (SIRI) has been a nightmare for investors — down 68% over three years. But is there a turnaround brewing?
The Reality Check:
Subscriber count peaked pre-pandemic and keeps sliding
Revenue growth? Haven’t seen double digits in over a decade
The churn problem: more people canceling than signing up
What Could Save It:
Berkshire Hathaway now owns 37.1% — Buffett’s presence matters
Trading cheap at under 7x next year’s earnings
Still printing serious free cash flow + 5.2% dividend yield
Back-to-office mandates could mean more commuters tuning in
The Wild Cards:
Howard Stern’s contract ends early 2026 — losing him would be brutal. But the company’s betting on podcasters and new content to fill the gap.
Analysts see slow revenue growth (just 0.8% by 2028) but 11% earnings growth. The real question: does Buffett keep accumulating, or does this become a private equity buyout?
As a cash flow machine with a fat dividend, SIRI might grind higher if the subscriber hemorrhaging stops. But it’s not sexy — more of a show-me story where execution is everything.
