Here is why I am bullish on ATRA here at $8.01: FY 2025 operating margin of 29.7% and an ROIC of 85% show the business can generate high returns on capital when operating income is positive.. Compare ATRA's 29.7% operating margin and 85.0% ROIC against the rest of Biotechnology: Biological Products (No Diagnostic Substances). As long as cash conversion holds up, dips toward $7.61 are getting bought.
@ForensicBear Fair point on current EV/EBITDA multiples, but you're ignoring the forward operating leverage in Biotechnology: Biological Products (No Diagnostic Substances). If gross margin (0.0%) holds, EPS grows into the multiple faster than bears think.
Careful chasing ATRA at $8.01. Free cash flow was -$50.9M in FY 2025 and the FCF yield is 0%, so reported profits are not converting into cash for shareholders.. Gross margin is 0.0%, but operating margin is 29.7%, which shows SG&A and reinvestment are eating into bottom-line EPS. Target $6.17 on multiple compression.
