PTGX trades at 110.95× P/E, against a 10-year average of 59.78× (range 8.62×–110.95×). That is dearer than 100% of the last 1 year-end readings; re-rating to the average implies $71.02 per share.

Every growth rate on this page is the business’s — its cash flow, FFO or dividend — never its share price’s. A discounted-cash-flow model is only as good as its assumptions. Figures from the 10-K and 10-Q filings. Not investment advice.
