NasdaqCM:CGEN Earnings & Revenue History as at Mar 2026

Losses hover around US$7 million per quarter

  • Across FY 2025 so far, net income loss has sat between US$6.98 million and US$7.34 million per quarter, with basic EPS losses between US$0.07 and US$0.08. This shows a fairly tight band of quarterly outcomes rather than big swings.
  • Bulls point to the five year trend of loss reduction at 19.3% per year as a sign the business model is moving in the right direction. However, the trailing twelve month net loss of US$27.62 million and an EPS loss of US$0.30 keep the company firmly in loss making territory.
    • That tension is clear when you line up the five year loss improvement against forecasts that still do not show a return to profit within the next three years.
    • For a bullish view to fully play out, those roughly US$7 million quarterly losses would need to narrow further so that any future revenue growth actually shows up in earnings.
Compugen’s bulls argue that improving loss trends and higher growth forecasts set the stage for a stronger story than the recent US$6.98 million quarterly loss suggests, and they lay out in detail how that could translate into future earnings. 🐂 Compugen Bull Case

High P/S multiple with mixed valuation signals

  • On the valuation side, Compugen trades on a P/S of 30.5x, compared with 12.5x for the US biotechs industry and 3.7x for peers. The DCF fair value in the dataset is US$25.59 against a current share price of US$2.25, which represents a very large gap between those two yardsticks.
  • Consensus narrative highlights a tug of war here, with potential benefits from partnerships and immunotherapy demand set against reliance on milestones and funding. That mix shows up in the numbers as an elevated P/S multiple alongside a DCF fair value that is far above where the stock currently trades.
    • The high P/S suggests the market already prices in strong future revenue, even though the trailing twelve month revenue sits at US$6.90 million and profitability is still negative.
    • The DCF fair value of US$25.59 relies on assumptions about future cash flows that differ significantly from what the current loss of US$27.62 million over twelve months would imply on its own.

Revenue forecasts outpace the wider market

  • Revenue is forecast to grow 25.87% per year, ahead of the 10.2% annual forecast for the broader US market. Recent reported revenue has moved between US$1.26 million and US$2.28 million per quarter in FY 2025 and totals US$6.90 million over the last twelve months.
  • Consensus narrative sees this faster revenue profile as tied to clinical progress and partnerships, but the same analysis also flags that earnings are not expected to turn positive within three years. The key question becomes how much of that forecast top line growth eventually filters through to margins.
    • The current trailing twelve month net loss of US$27.62 million alongside the forecast revenue growth rate shows that scale alone is not yet closing the gap to profitability.
    • Until earnings move closer to break even, investors are likely to weigh that 25.87% forecast growth against the reality of ongoing losses and the premium 30.5x P/S multiple.
