Strengths

  • Fast growth. Revenue grew 53.5% over the last 12 months, against a median of 12.6% for biotechnology companies we cover.

Things to watch

  • Growth slowing. The growth rate is 5.2 points lower than a quarter earlier.

  • Burning cash. Free cash flow was -43.9% of revenue over the last 12 months.
  • Heavy stock-based pay. Stock pay equals 36.4% of revenue, against a median of 19.2% for biotechnology companies we cover: a real cost that cash-flow figures leave out.
  • Share dilution. Diluted shares rose 8.1% in a year.
  • High sales multiple. The shares trade at 26 times revenue while operating margins remain thin.

Not rated: valued with our growth model, which doesn't carry a Buy/Hold/Sell rating yet.

Valuation models

We value Rhythm Pharmaceuticals, Inc. as an operating company, with every model that fits that kind of business. Cost of equity 9.9%: the 10-year Treasury yield (4.9%) plus a beta of 1.09 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. ~$47 ~$23–$69 Primary model, counts double
Price-to-earnings vs peers Earnings per share times peers' typical (harmonic-mean) price-to-earnings. — Does not apply: no positive earnings in the latest twelve months
Residual income Book value plus the present value of returns above the cost of equity, fading over ten years. — Does not apply: the model gives no positive value
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. ~$25 ~$26–$98 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. ~$3.2 ~$1.9–$4.9 Left out: out of range vs price (0.03x)
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. ~$43 ~$25–$47 2 models

Different models fail in different ways, so where several apply we average them rather than trust one. Peer-based models compare Rhythm Pharmaceuticals, Inc. with Biotechnology in our coverage, using third-party market data.
