WHAT DOES THIS COMPANY DO?
Cogent Biosciences, Inc. What it actually does.

Develop precision therapies for genetically defined diseases. Focus on treatments targeting specific genetic mutations. Now — the numbers.

258 employees
$5.7B market value
Revenue last year:
$0
The loss that same year:
$328.9M
Sales don’t cover the costs; the gap drains from the cash pile every year.

The company is still in the product-building phase: its spending runs far above its sales. That only changes once the product starts selling at scale.

In the vault right now:
$900.8M
DEBT: $253.2M
At this pace, that money lasts about 2.7 years.

At this burn rate the cash pile isn’t the pressing question — for now, time is on the company’s side.

What executives did with their own stock over the last 12 months:
31 buy14 sell

Buys outnumber sells, but taken together the trades don’t add up to a strong signal of confidence.

FINALE · THE GRADE
B
55 / 100 · MoonshotScore

On our five-subject report card, COGT sits in the middle of the class: some subjects shine, others don’t. The grade moves as the numbers move.

The takeaway: COGT is a high-risk stock — not yet profitable, and its future rides on its product catching on.

Analysts’ average target sits above today’s price, yet the valuation grade (47/100) says the stock isn’t cheap.
