ADC Therapeutics SA (NYSE:ADCT), listed on the NYSE under the symbol ADCT, specializes in developing antibody drug conjugates. These are targeted cancer therapies that combine antibodies with cancer-killing drugs. Despite its innovative approach, ADCT faces financial challenges, as reflected in its recent earnings report. The company competes with other biotech firms in the oncology sector, striving to advance cancer treatment options.
On March 27, 2025, ADCT reported an earnings per share (EPS) of -$0.44, missing the estimated EPS of -$0.35. This indicates that the company is currently experiencing negative earnings, as highlighted by its price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of approximately -0.78. A negative P/E ratio suggests that the company is not generating profits, which can be concerning for investors.
ADCT’s revenue for the period was $19 million, slightly below the estimated $19.01 million. The price-to-sales ratio of about 2.16 suggests that investors are willing to pay $2.16 for every dollar of sales generated by the company. This indicates some level of investor confidence in the company’s sales potential, despite the revenue miss.
The company’s enterprise value to sales ratio is approximately 2.97, providing insight into its valuation relative to sales. However, the enterprise value to operating cash flow ratio is around -1.57, reflecting negative operating cash flow. This means the company is spending more cash than it is generating from its operations, which can be a red flag for financial health.
Despite these challenges, ADCT maintains a strong liquidity position with a current ratio of approximately 4.92. This suggests that the company has ample current assets to cover its current liabilities, providing some reassurance to investors about its ability to meet short-term obligations.
