Winston Score History

The full picture

Pharma-Bio Serv is a consulting and compliance services company that helps businesses in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, food, and medical device industries follow government regulations. Its main services include training, audits, quality assurance support, and regulatory consulting. The company primarily serves manufacturers and producers who need to meet strict safety and quality standards set by agencies like the FDA.

The company earns revenue by charging fees for its consulting projects and training programs rather than selling physical products. It operates mainly in Puerto Rico and the broader United States, serving a region with a significant concentration of pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities. Pharma-Bio Serv is a small company with a market cap near zero, and it faces real financial pressure, as its negative operating margin shows it is currently spending more than it earns. The key risk is its small size and limited resources, which make it vulnerable to losing clients to larger, better-funded consulting firms.

Cash watch

Pharma-Bio Serv has less than a year of cash at its current burn rate. Growth investors should watch for potential share dilution from future fundraising — that directly reduces your ownership.

The Winston Score above measures business quality today. Growth stocks often score lower because they invest in the future rather than maximising current profits. These metrics show what matters most for evaluating that future.

0.3% over 4y

The share count has stayed roughly flat over this period — little dilution or buyback activity.
