VCELVericel Corporation
Is the price fair?
Neither cheap nor expensive: modest expectations priced in, but rich vs its sector.
Priced for ~13% a year FCF growth. The price demands less than its three-year revenue growth of 20% a year, expectations look modest.
Sector median 22.6× across 130 covered peers. EV/EBIT counts debt as part of the price, so a cash-rich and a borrowed company can be compared on the same footing.
