However, Fubotv stock continues to be a high-risk play, due to the competitive nature of the streaming industry and its relatively average balance sheet. FUBO currently holds $374.29 million in cash and $363.9 million in total debt, which could be a limiting factor for both their long-term growth rate and efforts towards achieving profitability.
