Losses Narrow on a Trailing 12‑Month View
- On a trailing twelve month basis, Century Therapeutics reported US$109.2 million of revenue with a net loss of US$9.6 million, compared with a net loss of US$126.6 million on US$6.6 million of revenue in the prior half year included in that period.
- For a more optimistic, bullish style view, what stands out is that losses have been reduced at about 6.8% per year over the past five years. However, the latest trailing twelve month figures still show a net loss of US$9.6 million and basic EPS of US$0.11 in the red, which keeps the focus on how durable that loss reduction really is.
EPS Swings Between Halves Remain Wide
- Across the last three reported half year periods, basic EPS moved from a loss of US$0.82 in early 2024, to a loss of US$0.79 in the second half of 2024, then to a profit of US$0.51 in the first half of 2025, highlighting a wide range of outcomes across a short timeline.
- Bears argue that earnings are still fragile, and that view is supported by forecasts calling for earnings to decline by about 20.7% per year over the next three years, even after the swing to positive EPS in the latest half. This underlines how one profitable half does not yet offset a recent pattern of losses and the current trailing twelve month loss position.
P/S of 4.1x Sits Below Biotech Peers
- The current P/S ratio of 4.1x sits well below the 14x level for peers and the 12.2x average for the US Biotech industry, even though analysts expect Century Therapeutics to remain unprofitable over the next three years and have also forecast no revenue next year.
- For a more cautious, bearish narrative, what is striking is that the lower P/S multiple comes alongside substantial shareholder dilution over the past year and higher share price volatility in the last three months. Together, these factors suggest the market is weighing that valuation discount against a backdrop of continued forecast losses and no near term profitability in sight.
