Fundamentals
Valuation and ratings
Arcus Biosciences, Inc. trades at USD26.64, which is 58% above the USD11.21 our discounted cash flow model puts on the business. On that measure it screens as expensive, which is not the same as saying it will fall.
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.
