# PTC Therapeutics Inc. (PTCT) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-11-04. NASDAQ, United States. Sector: Healthcare / Biotechnology. Price $68.12, market value $5.7 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): n/a** (negative earnings). PTC Therapeutics Inc. 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.
- **PEG: 0.11**. A PEG of 0.11 means the P/E is low relative to expected earnings growth: the market is not paying much for that growth.
- **Price / sales: 4.9×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 4.9×.
- **EV / EBITDA: 23.9×**. Enterprise value is 23.9× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed; above 20× is demanding.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 0.0%** (5-yr avg -5.2%). Free cash flow equals 0.0% of the market value, above its five-year average of -5.2%, so the shares are cheaper on cash than they have usually been.

- **Net margin: 39.4%**. 39.4% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: -332.5%**. Return on equity is negative because earnings are negative.
- **Return on invested capital: -12.9%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is -12.9%: close to or below the cost of capital, so growth may not create value.
