Fair value per share

Under review: every model's value for Virgin Galactic Holdings, Inc is far from the share price, which usually points to a data problem (a merger, a share-count change, a one-off) rather than a bargain or a bubble.

Our note on each quarter Virgin Galactic Holdings files

Where Virgin Galactic stands after its latest 10-Q

Virgin Galactic has little or no product revenue yet; it used $386m of cash in the twelve months to June 2026. That puts it 46 of 46 for growth among the aerospace & defense companies we cover. The diluted share count is up 125.3% on a year earlier, which dilutes existing holders. Against its peers on growth, profitability, cash generation and balance sheet, it grades E. It passes 2 of our 7 financial-health checks.

Our model value for Virgin Galactic Holdings is under review, so past values are not shown until it is resolved.

Valuation models

We value Virgin Galactic Holdings, Inc as an operating company, with every model that fits that kind of business. Cost of equity 11.8%: the 10-year Treasury yield (4.9%) plus a beta of 1.53 times a 4.5% equity risk premium.
