Fundamentals
Valuation and ratings
Pacific Biosciences of California, Inc. trades at $2.37. Our model's figure for Pacific Biosciences of California, Inc. is more than three times the share price, or less than a third of it. A gap that size is far more often a data problem than a real mispricing, so we publish no estimate until the inputs produce one that passes this check.
Our moat model scores it 15 out of 100, which is little in the way of a moat. A moat is a structural reason competitors cannot take the profits away, and it matters more to a long holding period than any single quarter's numbers do.
