What matters now

• The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($1.05). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
• The large gap to fair value rests on thin data (low evidence): fewer applicable models and a shorter history. Read it with extra caution.
• Solid but not exceptional quality (50/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.

Analysis

CEL-SCI Corp (CVM) currently trades at $1.56, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $0.8415, implying the stock looks roughly 46.1% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 50/100 (solid quality), in the Healthcare sector. Bear case: priced above our estimate, the market already discounts strong expectations. Bull case: above-average quality can justify a premium, the entry price still matters most (evidence: low).

Trailing-twelve-month revenue stands at $28.6K. Revenue declined 62.7% year over year. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $1.6M. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $0.6311 (bear case) to $1.05 (bull case); at $1.56, the current price sits above that range. Bear and bull are the same models run on conservative and optimistic assumptions (margins, growth, valuation multiples), so a plausible valuation range, not a price target. For context, the median of 10 Healthcare peers we cover trades at -59% fair-value upside, at -46%, CVM screens cheaper than that median.

Fair Value models

Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted blend. Evidence (0–100) measures how completely this model’s inputs are available: well-fed models carry more weight in the blend. The spread across models is intentional, each one stresses a different value driver; dividend models, for instance, come out structurally low when payout is small.

Widest divergence: DCF Models ($1.52) versus Asset-Based ($0.0002). Highest evidence: EV/EBITDA (54).

Frequently asked questions

How we calculate Fair Value

Each company is valued through a stack of independent intrinsic-value models (DCF variants, residual-income, multiples and more), blended into one family-balanced consensus and weighted by how much trustworthy data backs it. A separate quality layer scores the fundamentals. Every input is real reported data, nothing guessed.
