## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): n/a** (negative earnings). Inventiva S.A. American Depository Shares reported negative earnings over the last twelve months, so the P/E is not meaningful; use price-to-sales, EV/EBITDA and free-cash-flow yield instead.
- **Price / sales: 251.9×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 251.9×, a level that requires very high margins or very fast growth to justify.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: -9.3%** (5-yr avg -36.1%). Free cash flow is negative: the business is consuming cash, which is normal for heavy investment phases but a warning otherwise.

## Profitability
- **Return on invested capital: 66.6%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is 66.6%: comfortably above what that capital costs.

- **Interest coverage: -4.0×**. Operating profit covers interest only -4.0×: fragile.
