After working as a Registered Nurse for several years, I transitioned into financial analysis, earning my MBA and developing expertise in healthcare investments. Since 2017, I’ve published investment analyses on Seeking Alpha, focusing on thorough valuation modeling. My approach centers on examining core assumptions that drive stock valuations, particularly through detailed discounted cash flow analysis. I provide readers with various scenarios to help them understand potential outcomes. The principles in works like “Superforecasting” and “Antifragile” have shaped my investment philosophy. I advocate for a conservative approach that puts 90% in stable investments while allocating 10% to growth opportunities for balanced returns. Looking to connect?

The model applies consistent annual growth rates to these projections. Each year’s cash flow is discounted using a rate calculated through CAPM, accounting for both time value and risk factors. The model extends beyond Year 8 by calculating terminal value – projecting Year 9 cash flows and applying a sustainable long-term growth rate. This framework assumes steady growth patterns and discount rates, with the latter exceeding long-term growth to maintain mathematical validity. The projections assume business conditions remain relatively stable.Pharmaceutical Revenue Model (Current as of February 2025): Market adoption follows a linear progression from 10% initial uptake to full penetration at peak, after which usage declines 8% yearly while maintaining at least 40% of peak levels. Revenue calculations combine patient numbers (based on market penetration and share) with annual treatment costs. Operating and production costs scale proportionally with sales volume. The final valuation incorporates success probability factors and time-adjusted cash flows using standard discount rates.
