Value (99): The shares cost little relative to the profits and assets behind them — which can mean the market is too gloomy, or that the business really is in trouble.

Accruals (22): A large share of reported profit has not shown up as cash, or the balance sheet is expanding quickly — both tend to unwind.

The Ticker Nerd Read

Our model ranks it 97.9 of 100; the Street's average target is $18.

As of 30 October 2026, our factor model ranks Aurinia 97.9 of 100 across roughly 4,600 US stocks, fourth of 535 biotechs. Value (99.1), Quality (96.8) and Low Volatility (98.9) carry it: the shares cost little for what the business earns, and the price path is among the steadiest we track. The main drag is Investment/Accruals at 22.1, a family that flags reported profit not yet arrived as cash.

The Street's average target of $18 compares with a close of $16.65 on 30 October 2026; five of seven analysts rate the shares Buy, two Hold. The bigger gap is inside our own data: trailing P/E is 7.3, forward P/E is 14.3. The trailing figure includes the December 2025 quarter, which reported net income of $210.8M on sales of $77.1M.

That reading would turn if cash flow caught up with reported profit: in the four quarters to 30 June 2026, operating cash flow was $175.2M against net income of $314.1M. Estimates as of 27 October 2026 are split, with the current-year consensus of $0.948 per share down 0.2% in 90 days while next year's $1.168 is up 5.5%. The third-quarter report on 30 October 2026 delivered EPS of $0.23 against a $0.20 consensus and revenue of $83.7M.
