Celldex Therapeutics, Inc. (CLDX) has a negative trailing P/E of -8.5, meaning the company is currently unprofitable on a trailing twelve-month (TTM) basis. The forward P/E of 8.0 based on analyst estimates suggests a return to profitability is expected. Trailing earnings yield is -11.70%, forward earnings yield 12.45%.
Criteria proven by this page:
- VALUE (33/100, Fail) — negative P/E indicates the company is currently operating at a loss — DCF and P/E-based valuation models cannot produce meaningful results for unprofitable companies (P/E -8.5); trailing earnings yield is below the 10-year Treasury yield (~4.3%), meaning bonds offer a better return (EY -11.70%); analyst consensus target implies downside from the current price ($24.00, 28%).
- Forward P/E 8.0 — analysts expect a return to profitability with estimated EPS of $4.15 for FY2030.
- Trailing Earnings Yield -11.70% — negative yield confirms the company is currently unprofitable. Investors are paying for a turnaround rather than current earnings. Forward yield improves to 12.45% as earnings recover.
- Analyst consensus target $24.00 (-28% downside) — analysts see meaningful downside risk at the current price level.
Overall SharesGrow Score: 45/100 with 1/7 criteria passed.
