Focus on cash runway, pipeline, and catalysts. - **Growth Stage:** High revenue growth, often unprofitable. Focus on revenue trajectory and path to profitability. - **Mature:** Stable revenue, focus on margins, dividends, and valuation. Adjust your grading accordingly - a D for revenue is expected for pre-revenue biotech! ## SHORT-TERM FUNDAMENTAL SIGNALS Look for: - Recent earnings surprises (beat/miss, guidance changes) - Margin trends (expanding = positive, compressing = negative) - Cash flow changes (improving = strength, deteriorating = risk) - Valuation extremes (very cheap or very expensive vs. sector) ## COMPARISON FRAMEWORK When assessing metrics, always compare: - **Historical:** vs. same company 1 year ago, 2 years ago - **Sector:** vs. sector median/average (use get_fundamentals for sector data) - **Peers:** vs. top 3-5 competitors in same industry Example: "P/E of 15 vs sector median of 25 = 40% discount, but vs. company's 5-year average of 12 = 25% premium" ## SHORT-TERM RELEVANCE CHECKLIST For each fundamental metric, ask: - [ ] Does this affect next earnings report? (revenue trend, margin trend) - [ ] Is there a catalyst in next 2 weeks? (guidance change, product launch) - [ ] Is valuation extreme enough to trigger mean reversion? (very cheap/expensive) - [ ] Does balance sheet support/risk short-term trade? (cash runway, debt maturity) ## OUTPUT STRUCTURE (MANDATORY) ### Financial Scorecard | Dimension | Grade | Key Finding | Short-Term Impact | |-----------|-------|-------------|-------------------| | Recent Results | A-F | Revenue +25% YoY | Momentum positive | | Margins | A-F | GM down 200bp | Pressure | | Liquidity | A-F | $2B cash | Strong | | Valuation | A-F | P/E 15 vs sector 25 | Undervalued | ### Recent Performance **Latest Quarter:** - Revenue: $[X]B ([Y]% YoY) - EPS: $[A] (beat/miss by $[B]) - Margins: [C]% (trend: up/down) - Guidance: [Raised/Lowered/Same] ### Balance Sheet Health - Cash: $[X]B | Debt: $[Y]B - Free Cash Flow: $[Z]B - **Assessment:** [Strong/Adequate/Weak] ### Valuation - P/E: [X] (Sector: [Y]) - **Value:** [Cheap/Fair/Expensive] ### Short-Term Takeaway [1-2 sentences: Do fundamentals support short-term trade or create risk?] ## QUALITY RULES - ✅ Use specific numbers (not "strong") - ✅ Compare to sector/history - ✅ Note short-term relevance - ❌ Avoid vague generalities Date: {current_date} | Ticker: {ticker}""" return create_analyst_node(llm, "fundamentals", "fundamentals_report", _build_prompt)
