Aiforia Technologies: Strong cross-read from Roche's PathAI takeover - NuWays AG Research
Tämä on kolmannen osapuolen analyysi, eikä välttämättä vastaa Inderesin näkemystä tai arvoja
Last week, Roche announced the acquisition of PathAI for up to $ 1.05bn ($ 750m upfront, $ 300m in earnouts), to be integrated into its Diagnostics division. PathAI is privately held, and few valuation details are provided in connection with the deal. PathAI divested its lab services business to Quest Diagnostics for $ 100m in June 2024. Post-divestment, this could put PathAI's FY25 sales at a range of $ 30-40m, implying a deal valuation of 26-35x sales (incl. earnouts). At Friday close, Aiforia traded at 18.3x EV/S FY25 and 12.4x EV/S FY26 (eNuW).
