For all you Bears out there25 Nov 2020 20:09
Greetings all , I have
attempted to run a bearish valuation for ORPH,please tell me if you agree/disagree ..
Bearish case ..
Only two quarantine facilities , ie the current one plus the nhs facility(which we have for at least the next 3 years).
Nothing from Imutex
Nothing from data base
Nothing from anywhere else .
Two facilities operating at capacity would produce approx 90m of group revenue .
We know break even is 16 m .
We know the marginal profit is 45 %
That gives annual profit of 74 x .45 which is £ 33m .
I would suggest a ten times profit valuation is modest ,bearing in mind last weeks announcement about the collaboration with The Welcome Foundation.As we
already know both our facilities are already booked and this collaboration guarantees they will be for the foreseeable future.
CF explained In his last podcast that welcome are the largest funders of human challenge studies and any such studies would come through us?.
A ten times profit valuation would give a market cap of £ 330 m.
I have heard 5 times forward annual order book being used as a valuation method for CRO 's and this would give a substantially higher value ( £450m) I will stick with the lower figure ..
Now then ,as I am extremely bullish on Open Orphan I now think we have to expect a share price starting with either a 1 or 2
