Each row records the model's monthly assessment. High Conviction = the model detected notable undervaluation vs peers. Neutral = no notable divergence was found. The return column shows the actual price change over 90 days for reference. This is a quantitative observation log — not investment advice.

Based on our peer multiples analysis with 5 valuation metrics, the model estimates AQST's fair value at $1.38 vs the current price of $4.20, implying -67.2% downside potential. Model verdict: Significantly Overvalued. Confidence: 60/100. This is a quantitative estimate, not a recommendation.
The blended fair value of $1.38 is calculated using four lenses: industry median multiples (40%), historical multiples (30%), forward estimates (20%), and quality-adjusted multiples (10%). Monte Carlo simulation (10,000 iterations) gives a range of $0.62 (P10) to $2.41 (P90), with a median of $1.45.
AQST's current P/E of -5.5x compares to the industry median of 21.2x (3 peers in the group). This represents a -126.1% discount to the industry. The historical average P/E is N/Ax over 0 years. Signal: Deep Discount.
10 analysts cover AQST with a consensus rating of Buy. The consensus price target is $9.00 (range: $6.00 — $12.00), implying +114.3% upside from the current price. Grade breakdown: Strong Buy (0), Buy (10), Hold (0), Sell (0), Strong Sell (0).
The model confidence score is 60/100, based on: data completeness (6), peer quality (25), historical depth (20), earnings stability (5), and model agreement (4). Cyclicality penalty: -0 points. The model shows moderate agreement across inputs.
The model flags several key risks: (1) Macro/regulatory risks are not captured in this model but remain material.
Peak earnings risk data is not available for AQST.
