InvestingPro Data highlights some key metrics for IGM Biosciences as of the last twelve months ending Q4 2023. The company holds a market capitalization of approximately $625.49 million, and despite a significant revenue growth of 99.25%, it reports a negative gross profit margin of -9937.09%. This indicates substantial costs relative to the revenue, which is reflected in the gross profit figure of -$211.66 million. Additionally, the stock has experienced a large price uptick, with a 61.21% return over the last three months, though it has also seen a decline of 14.95% in the past week.
InvestingPro Tips suggest a nuanced view of the company’s prospects. On the positive side, IGMS holds more cash than debt on its balance sheet and analysts have revised their earnings upwards for the upcoming period, signaling potential optimism in future performance. On the other hand, the company is quickly burning through cash, has weak gross profit margins, and is not expected to be profitable this year. These factors, combined with a high revenue valuation multiple, can influence investors’ assessment of the stock’s fair value.
