Losses Hold Around US$8.9 Million Despite Revenue Progress
- Q1 2026 net loss excluding extra items came in at US$8.9 million on revenue of US$27.4 million, close to the Q4 2025 net loss of US$8.9 million on higher revenue of US$29.5 million, which shows that recent revenue changes have not yet shifted the loss line much.
- Consensus narrative expects revenue to grow about 21.3% a year with margins moving from a loss of 30.5% to a 3.2% profit over roughly three years, yet the trailing 12 month loss of US$33.2 million on US$111.0 million of revenue points to a business that still needs a meaningful margin swing before those expectations line up with current results.
- Analysts pointing to future earnings of US$5.9 million are working off a very different picture than the recent annual loss of more than US$30 million.
- The fact that quarterly net losses have stayed in a band between about US$7.4 million and US$9.2 million since early 2025 gives you a simple check against any story that assumes a rapid shift into strong profitability.
TTM Losses Widen Slightly While Revenue Growth Slows
- On a trailing 12 month basis, revenue moved from US$90.0 million in Q4 2024 to US$111.0 million in Q1 2026, while the trailing loss excluding extra items went from US$38.1 million to US$33.2 million, which the risk summary describes as losses widening at about 2.9% a year over five years despite revenue growing at 10.2% a year.
- Bears argue that the company is unlikely to reach profitability in the next three years, and the combination of a trailing loss of US$33.2 million, negative shareholders’ equity and recent share price volatility directly feeds that view.
- Even with 10.2% trailing revenue growth, the inability so far to turn that into positive earnings supports the cautious argument that higher volumes alone may not be enough to fix margins quickly.
- The fact that net losses on a trailing basis remain above US$30 million gives bears a clear data point when they question whether integration projects and sales force expansion will translate into near term profits.
Deep Discount to 0.5x P/S and DCF Fair Value
- The stock trades around US$0.98 with a P/S of 0.5x, versus an industry context where peers average about 7.5x and the broader US biotech sector sits near 10.6x P/S. A DCF fair value of about US$20.63 per share highlights how far the current price is from that intrinsic estimate.
- Bullish investors argue that this gap between a 0.5x P/S multiple and higher peer multiples plus the DCF fair value reflects an opportunity, but the trailing 12 month loss of US$33.2 million and expectations for continued unprofitability over the next three years show why the discount exists.
- The roughly US$110.97 million of trailing revenue against a sub US$1 share price is the kind of mismatch bulls point to when they say the stock is trading like the business will not fix its earnings profile.
- At the same time, the ongoing losses and negative shareholders’ equity are the hard numbers that any bullish thesis has to grapple with, because they are exactly what can keep valuation multiples compressed even when revenue is growing.
