You can check out the latest numbers in our company report. We really hope anyone holding through that price crash has a diversified portfolio. Even when you lose money, you don't have to lose the lesson. \n With the stock having lost 13% in the past week, it's worth taking a look at business performance and seeing if there's any red flags. \n Check out our latest analysis for Precigen \n Because Precigen made a loss in the last twelve months, we think the market is probably more focussed on revenue and revenue growth, at least for now. Shareholders of unprofitable companies usually desire strong revenue growth. Some companies are willing to postpone profitability to grow revenue faster, but in that case one would hope for good top-line growth to make up for the lack of earnings. \n In the last five years Precigen saw its revenue shrink by 52% per year. That puts it in an unattractive cohort, to put it mildly. So it's not altogether surprising to see the share price down 13% per year in the same time period. We don't think this is a particularly promising picture. Ironically, that behavior could create an opportunity for the contrarian investor - but only if there are good reasons to predict a brighter future. \n The company's revenue and earnings (over time) are depicted in the image below (click to see the exact numbers). \n\n\n\n  NasdaqGS:PGEN Earnings and Revenue Growth November 20th 2024\n \n\n Take a more thorough look at Precigen's financial health with this free report on its balance sheet. \nA Different Perspective\n While the broader market gained around 32% in the last year, Precigen shareholders lost 30%. Even the share prices of good stocks drop sometimes, but we want to see improvements in the fundamental metrics of a business, before getting too interested. However, the loss over the last year isn't as bad as the 13% per annum loss investors have suffered over the last half decade. We'd need to see some sustained improvements in the key metrics before we could muster much enthusiasm. It's always interesting to track share price performance over the longer term. But to understand Precigen better, we need to consider many other factors. Consider for instance, the ever-present spectre of investment risk.   We've identified 3 warning signs  with Precigen (at least 1 which is potentially serious)  , and understanding them should be part of your investment process. \n We will like Precigen better if we see some big insider buys. While we wait, check out this free list of undervalued stocks (mostly small caps) with considerable, recent, insider buying. \nPlease note, the market returns quoted in this article reflect the market weighted average returns of stocks that currently trade on American exchanges.\nHave feedback on this article?
