  • priced at 14× earnings against an industry median of 44× — 69% below its peers

Assembled automatically from the figures on this page — the scans matched, their measured record, the filed financials, the derivatives positioning and the peer comparison. It is not a recommendation, no one has spoken to the company, and every claim above can be checked against a number further down this page.

Valuation against its own history

500 sessions since 2024-09-06
median 11×
15×
now 14×
NATCOPHARM trades at 14× trailing earnings, above its median of 11× over this window — 29% more expensive than usual. The band runs from the 5th to the 95th percentile, so single-day spikes do not set the edges.
This window is short by the standards of valuation history — it begins where four quarters of filed earnings first exist. A stock can look cheap against two years and expensive against ten.
