Your guesses, our math
Move the sliders to your own view of LCTX. Starting points are the company's recent numbers (it isn't profitable yet, so the margin starts at a 10% guess).

Price these guesses point to$0.12-88% vs $1.00 todayAbout -35% a year, before dividends
What today's price needs: with a 10% margin and a 15x P/E, sales would have to grow about 83% a year for 5 years just to match today's price.
Simple math on your guesses, not a forecast or a price target. Real results depend on many things these sliders leave out.
