Our note on each quarter Alphatec Holdings files

10-Q filed October 29: Alphatec

Model value −22.0%

Alphatec Holdings generated $840m in revenue over the twelve months to September 2026, 15.3% higher than a year earlier but a step down from the 19.5% pace seen the previous quarter. Free-cash-flow margin stayed flat at -1.2%. Operating margin, meanwhile, narrowed its losses considerably, widening to -3.6% from -13.3%. Shareholders should note that the diluted share count climbed 4.6% year on year, a dilution that chips away at existing holders' stakes. On the fundamentals side, the company's grade improved from D to C. Our model value, however, moved the other way, dropping from $8.90 to $6.94 a share. That figure sits well below the current share price of $12.07, suggesting the stock trades at a premium to our estimate.

Valuation models

We value Alphatec Holdings, Inc. as an operating company, with every model that fits that kind of business. Cost of equity 8.8%: the 10-year Treasury yield (4.9%) plus a beta of 0.85 times a 4.5% equity risk premium.

Value per share by model
Model Value per share In the combined value?
Growth cash-flow model Revenue for this year and next from analysts' consensus, then growth fading to 2.5%; the operating margin moving to profitable peers'; investment needed per dollar of growth from peers; reduced by a failure probability. For young or fast-growing companies. The starting margin is normalized to between -100% and 60%; net margin is a proxy when operating income is not tagged. Uses analysts' consensus estimates (third-party data), not our forecasts. ~$1.5 Left out: far from the other models (more than 3x away from their median)
Forward price-to-earnings vs peers Next year's consensus earnings per share times peers' typical (harmonic-mean) forward price-to-earnings. Uses analysts' consensus estimates (third-party data), not our forecasts. ~$10 ~$8.7–$16 Included
Residual income Book value plus the present value of returns above the cost of equity, fading over ten years. — Does not apply: book value or earnings not available
Justified price-to-book Book value times (return on equity - growth) / (cost of equity - growth): steady-state returns. — Does not apply: return on equity is not positive
Forward price-to-sales vs peers Next year's consensus sales per share times peers' typical forward price-to-sales; only when earnings are negative. Uses analysts' consensus estimates (third-party data), not our forecasts. ~$8.0 ~$9.0–$30 Included, half weight
Revenue-to-maturity model Revenue grown to maturity with the cash margin moving to the industry's; for companies not yet profitable. ~$6.7 ~$4.5–$9.4 Included
Combined value Weighted average of the models that apply: the primary model (growth cash-flow model) counts double. Models more than 5x or less than 0.2x the share price, or more than 3x away from the other models' median, are left out. ~$8.3 ~$6.7–$10 3 models
