Personalis Financial Statement Overview

Summary

Personalis shows a mixed financial performance with a solid balance sheet and positive revenue growth. However, the company faces ongoing profitability challenges with significant net losses and negative cash flows. Strong equity positions provide stability, but operational losses and cash flow issues remain concerns.

Income Statement

The company shows a mixed performance on the income statement. The TTM (Trailing-Twelve-Months) Gross Profit Margin stands at 33.31%, which indicates a reasonable level of profitability, albeit with high operational costs reflected in negative EBIT and EBITDA margins. The Net Profit Margin is significantly negative at -98.10%, highlighting ongoing losses. Revenue growth is positive at 3.20% year-over-year, suggesting some potential for future revenue expansion despite current challenges.

Balance Sheet

Personalis maintains a solid balance sheet, with a Debt-to-Equity ratio of 0.21, indicating low leverage and financial stability. The Equity Ratio is strong at 75.88%, showing substantial equity funding. However, despite a positive Return on Equity of -40.54%, the company operates at a loss, impacting overall financial health.

Cash Flow

Cash flow analysis reveals challenges with negative free cash flow, though the Free Cash Flow to Net Income Ratio of 0.56 suggests some alignment between cash outflows and net loss. The Operating Cash Flow to Net Income Ratio at 0.51 indicates cash operations are not fully supporting net income, a risk factor for liquidity.
