PharmaCyte Biotech, Inc. represents a avoid based on multi-factor quantitative performance.
Our quantitative model flags PharmaCyte Biotech, Inc. with an Avoid rating, assigning a composite score of 33.8/100 and 1 out of 5 stars. Ranked #4225 of 7,333 stocks, PMCB falls in the bottom tier across key factors. Historically, stocks with this profile have faced elevated risk of underperformance and capital loss.
PMCB's quality score of 38/100 is below average, suggesting challenges with profitability or capital efficiency. The company reports a return on equity of -66.2% (sector avg: -1.9%). Investors should examine whether management is actively addressing these weaknesses or if they reflect structural industry headwinds.
PMCB registers a value score of just 26/100, suggesting the stock trades at a significant premium to its fundamental metrics. Key valuation metrics include a P/B ratio of 0.20x. High-premium valuations like this require strong future execution to avoid multiple compression, and downside risk is elevated if growth disappoints.
PharmaCyte Biotech, Inc.'s investment score of 25/100 suggests limited reinvestment activity. Key growth metrics include a return on assets of -41.7% (sector: 0.9%). While this can be positive for mature, cash-generative businesses returning capital to shareholders, it may also signal a lack of growth opportunities or management conservatism.
PharmaCyte Biotech, Inc. is experiencing notably weak momentum with a score of just 18/100. The stock has underperformed its peers and is trending below major moving averages. Revenue growth data is not currently available, while a beta of 0.64 reflects its sensitivity to broader market moves. While deep momentum weakness can occasionally present value opportunities, it often reflects deteriorating fundamentals or structural headwinds that may persist.
PMCB's stability score of 44/100 signals elevated volatility and/or leverage concerns. Key stability metrics include a beta of 0.64 and a debt-to-equity ratio of 55.00x (sector avg: 0.2x). Investors should be prepared for wider-than-average price swings and consider position sizing accordingly to manage portfolio risk.
PMCB carries a short interest score of 68/100, indicating moderate short selling activity. This is a neutral reading — not enough to signal systemic bearishness, but worth monitoring. Specific risk factors include elevated leverage (D/E: 55.00x), micro-cap liquidity risk. At $16M market cap (micro-cap), PharmaCyte Biotech, Inc. offers reasonable institutional liquidity.
PharmaCyte Biotech, Inc. is a micro-cap company in the Manufacturing sector, ranked #0 of 50 in its sector (100th percentile) and #4225 of 7,333 overall (42nd percentile). Key comparisons include ROE of -66.2% trailing the -1.9% sector median. This top-quartile standing reflects exceptional competitive strength relative to Manufacturing peers.
While PMCB currently exhibits a AVOID profile, superior opportunities exist within the MANUFACTURING sector. Our model identifies several "Strong Buy" candidates with higher quality scores and more attractive valuations among direct industry competitors.
