How to Read This Chart

This chart tracks the historical stock price of Vericel over time. You can switch between daily, weekly, and monthly views and select custom time ranges — from a single day to the full available history. Use the toggle to view price changes in absolute currency terms or as a percentage change relative to the starting date.

Total Return vs. Price Return

The "Total Return" toggle includes reinvested dividends on top of the pure price movement. This is critical because dividends can account for a significant portion of long-term returns. Historically, roughly 40 % of the S&P 500's total return has come from dividends. Always compare total return when evaluating a stock's real performance against a benchmark.

What to Look For

Look for long-term trends (sustained upward or downward movements over months and years), support and resistance levels (price zones where the stock repeatedly bounces or reverses), and volatility (how much the price fluctuates day to day). Comparing Vericel's price chart to a market index like the S&P 500 can reveal whether the stock is outperforming or underperforming the broader market.

Income Statement Key Figures

Revenue and Revenue Growth

Revenue is the starting point of every income statement — it measures the total sales Vericel generates from its core business. Revenue growth (expressed as year-over-year percentage change) is one of the most important indicators of business momentum. Sustained growth above 10 % annually is generally considered strong, while declining revenue is a serious warning sign that demands investigation.

Gross Margin

Gross margin = (Revenue − Cost of Goods Sold) ÷ Revenue. It reveals what percentage of each dollar of revenue Vericel retains after direct production costs. High gross margins (above 50 %) are typical of asset-light businesses like software and brands, while capital-intensive industries like manufacturing often operate below 30 %. Compare Vericel's gross margin to industry peers and track it over time to spot improving or deteriorating pricing power.

EBIT and EBIT Margin

EBIT measures operating profit — what remains after subtracting all operating expenses (including R&D, sales, and administrative costs) from gross profit. The EBIT margin shows this as a percentage of revenue. Because it excludes interest and taxes, EBIT allows fair comparisons between companies with different debt levels and tax jurisdictions. A rising EBIT margin indicates improving operational efficiency.

Net Income and Earnings Per Share (EPS)

Net income is the company's final profit after all expenses, interest, and taxes. Dividing net income by the number of shares outstanding gives you EPS — the single most influential metric in stock valuation. Consistent EPS growth is the primary driver of long-term stock price appreciation. Always check whether EPS growth comes from genuine profit improvement or from share buybacks reducing the share count.

Shares Outstanding

The total number of shares Vericel has issued. A declining share count (through buybacks) boosts EPS and signals management confidence. A rising share count (through stock issuance) dilutes existing shareholders. Always monitor this number alongside EPS to get the full picture of per-share value creation.

Analyst Estimates

The projected figures represent consensus estimates from professional analysts. Compare these forecasts against Vericel's historical growth rates to assess whether expectations are realistic. A company that consistently beats consensus estimates tends to see its stock price rewarded over time, while repeated misses erode investor confidence.

Vericel stock margins

The Vericel margin analysis displays the gross margin, EBIT margin, as well as the profit margin of Vericel. The EBIT margin (EBIT/sales) indicates the percentage of sales that remains as operating profit. The profit margin shows the percentage of sales that remains for Vericel.

Another weakness is the regulatory environment surrounding cell therapies. The regulatory requirements for approval and marketing of these therapies can be complex and time-consuming. Vericel needs to navigate this landscape carefully to ensure timely commercialization of its products. Additionally, Vericel's financial performance has been reliant on the success of a few key products. This dependency on a small subset of products introduces financial risk if those products underperform or face challenges in the market. Lastly, Vericel may face challenges in scaling up its manufacturing capabilities to meet increasing demand. The production of cell therapies often requires specialized facilities and processes, which can be costly and resource-intensive.

Opportunities

Vericel Corp has several opportunities that can contribute to its growth and success. Market expansion is an important opportunity as the demand for innovative cell therapies is expected to increase. Vericel can explore new geographic markets, expand its product offerings, and target additional medical conditions that can benefit from its therapies. Furthermore, partnerships and collaborations can open up new avenues for Vericel. Collaborating with research institutions, healthcare providers, and industry leaders can help accelerate R&D efforts, access new technological advancements, and enhance market presence. Another opportunity lies in leveraging digital technologies and data analytics. Vericel can utilize these tools to optimize its operations, enhance customer experience, and gain valuable insights into patient outcomes. This can lead to improved treatments and increased customer loyalty.

Threats

Vericel Corp faces certain threats that could impact its performance and market position. One major threat is intense competition in the cell therapy industry. Numerous companies are vying for market share and actively developing similar therapies. Vericel needs to continuously innovate and differentiate its products to stay ahead of the competition. Another threat is the potential for changes in regulations and reimbursement policies. Policy changes can impact market access, pricing, and profitability. Vericel must closely monitor regulatory developments and adapt its strategy accordingly. Additionally, potential disruptions in the supply chain and manufacturing processes could pose threats. Vericel relies on raw materials, resources, and specialized facilities to produce its therapies. Any disruptions in these areas can lead to delays in product availability and impact customer satisfaction. Lastly, Vericel may face risks associated with unexpected adverse events or side effects related to its therapies. Public concerns, legal actions, and damage to the company's reputation can arise if such events occur. Vericel must maintain rigorous safety standards and effectively communicate the benefits and risks of its products.

Vericel Eulerpool Fair Value

Fair Value Estimate

What Is Fair Value?

Fair value is an estimate of what a stock is truly "worth" based on its financial fundamentals, independent of the current market price. If the calculated fair value is above the current share price, the stock may be undervalued — and vice versa. This chart shows three different fair value approaches so you can cross-check them against each other.

Earnings-Based Fair Value

Calculated by multiplying the current earnings per share (EPS) by the average historical P/E ratio over a selected multi-year period. The smoothing over several years filters out temporary spikes or dips. If this fair value exceeds the market price, it suggests the stock is cheap relative to its earning power.

Example: Fair Value (Earnings) 2022 = EPS 2022 × Average P/E 2019–2021

Revenue-Based Fair Value

Derived by multiplying revenue per share by the average historical price-to-sales ratio. This method is particularly useful for companies with volatile or temporarily depressed earnings, as revenue tends to be more stable than profits. It answers: "At what price has the market historically valued each dollar of this company's sales?"

Example: Fair Value (Revenue) 2022 = Revenue per Share 2022 × Average P/S 2019–2021

Dividend-Based Fair Value

Calculated by dividing the dividend per share by the average historical dividend yield. This approach is most relevant for mature, consistently dividend-paying companies. If the resulting fair value is higher than the current price, it implies the stock offers a better yield than its historical average.

Example: Fair Value (Dividend) 2022 = Dividend per Share 2022 ÷ Average Yield 2019–2021

How to Use This Chart

When all three fair value lines converge above the current price, it strengthens the case that the stock is undervalued. When they diverge, investigate why — it may indicate a structural shift in margins, payout policy, or growth rate. The forward estimates on the right extend the analysis using projected fundamentals, helping you assess whether the current price already reflects future growth expectations.

Vericel annual returns

Annual Return

What This Chart Shows

This chart breaks down 's total annual return into two components: price return (gains or losses from stock price movement) and dividend return (income received from dividend payments). Together, they represent the total return an investor would have earned in each calendar year.

Price Return

Price return measures the percentage change in 's stock price from January 1st to December 31st of each year. Positive bars indicate the stock appreciated; negative bars show a decline. This is the component most investors focus on, but it tells only part of the story — especially for dividend-paying stocks.

Dividend Return

Dividend return represents the income generated from dividends paid during the year, expressed as a percentage of the starting stock price. While it may seem small in any single year (typically 1–4 % for established companies), dividends compound significantly over decades and have historically contributed roughly 40 % of total stock market returns.

What to Look For

Examine how many years showed positive vs. negative returns to gauge consistency. A stock with mostly positive years and small drawdowns suggests lower risk. Also compare 's annual returns to a benchmark index — consistently outperforming the market is a hallmark of a strong investment. Pay attention to the worst years: understanding downside risk is just as important as chasing upside potential.

Vericel shares outstanding

The number of shares of Vericel was 52.07 M in 2025. This indicates how many shares Vericel is divided into. Since shareholders are the owners of a company, each share represents a small portion of the company's ownership.
