Deep Value: cash covers more than 100% of the stock price

This company holds roughly $28,506 in cash and investments — more than its entire stock-market value, based on its latest quarterly filing. You're paying very little for the actual business. Sometimes that's a genuine bargain or a takeover target, sometimes it's cheap for a reason. Not a buy signal on its own — always ask why it's this cheap.

Winston Score History

The full picture

Pressure BioSciences is a small biotechnology tools company that uses high-pressure technology to help scientists prepare biological samples for research. Its main product line is called PCT (Pressure Cycling Technology), which uses cycles of high and low pressure to break open cells and extract proteins, DNA, and other molecules. Its customers are mostly research laboratories, universities, pharmaceutical companies, and government agencies.

The company sells instruments, consumables, and reagents, and also earns some revenue from grants and collaborations. It operates primarily in the United States but sells to research institutions globally. Despite a 40% gross margin on its products, the company spends far more than it earns, resulting in a deeply negative operating margin, which signals it is not yet profitable. The biggest risk facing Pressure BioSciences is its ongoing need for external financing to fund operations, as it has a history of losses and a very small revenue base that makes long-term sustainability uncertain.
