INTRINSIC VALUE TODAY
$8.39
Trading above fair value
How this is calculated: We use a Growth Decay Model: starting with analyst consensus growth (adjusted above) and gradually slowing it down to a long-term terminal rate (4%) by Year 5. This provides a more realistic valuation than assuming constant hyper-growth. We then apply a 18.3x Exit PE.
In-depth Analysis How we analyze
Valuation Analysis: PRTA is currently trading at $8.88, which is considered oversold relative to its 30-day fair value range of $8.95 to $9.70. The stock's valuation (Forward PE: 16.7) is in line with its historical norms (18.3). Remarkably, the market is currently pricing in an annual earnings decline of 3.0% over the next few years. This aligns with recent fundamental challenges.
Technical Outlook: Technically, PRTA is in a strong uptrend. The price is currently testing key support at $8.65. A bounce from this level would confirm strength, while a break below could signal further downside.
Market Sentiment: PRTA has a weak technical setup (25/100), with bearish trendlines and momentum suggesting caution for short-term entries. In the options market, Implied Volatility is low (0th percentile), suggesting options premiums are relatively cheap. This makes it an attractive time for long options strategies if you have a directional bias. Wall Street analysts see significant upside, with an average price target of $20.33 (+130.8%). Current signals suggest waiting for a better entry point before initiating new positions.
