NYSE:CTEV Earnings & Revenue History as at Feb 2026
NYSE:CTEV Earnings & Revenue History as at Feb 2026

US$965 million in annual revenue with persistent losses

  • On a trailing 12 month basis, Claritev generated US$965.4 million in revenue with a net loss of US$284.3 million and basic EPS of US$17.30 in losses, showing a sizeable business that is still running at a loss.
  • Bulls point out that this revenue base, combined with AI and automation initiatives, could support long term earnings expansion, yet the current loss level gives them a high bar to clear:
    • Supporters focus on recurring deals and pipeline growth as a way to eventually turn that US$284.3 million loss into positive earnings, but the trailing figures show the company is not there yet.
    • The bullish view looks for higher margins over time, while the latest full year still reflects negative earnings across all four quarters, with quarterly net losses between US$62.6 million and US$80.6 million in 2025.
Claritev’s bullish backers argue that this scale plus AI driven efficiency could eventually turn losses into sizable profits, and they lay out how that might happen in the full bull case for the stock: 🐂 Claritev Bull Case

Loss trend tests the bearish worries

  • Trailing revenue growth sits at 3.6% per year while losses have grown at about 27.9% per year over the past five years, and the latest trailing loss of US$284.3 million compares with much larger losses over the prior year, so the current data still shows unprofitable operations even if the loss size has been lower than earlier periods.
  • Bears focus on rising regulatory and operating costs and the risk that Claritev stays unprofitable, and the reported numbers give them plenty to point to but also some nuance:
    • Critics highlight that analysts do not expect profitability within the next three years, which lines up with the current negative EPS across every 2025 quarter.
    • At the same time, the trailing net loss and EPS are smaller than the very large losses shown in earlier trailing data, which slightly softens, but does not remove, the bearish concern about long term margin pressure.

Low 0.2x P/S with balance sheet stress

  • Claritev trades on a P/S of 0.2x compared with 1.9x for peers and 2.2x for the US Healthcare Services industry, while carrying negative shareholders’ equity and a highly volatile share price, so the valuation looks low against sales but comes with clear balance sheet and market risk.
  • The consensus style narrative sees this low multiple as a potential reward but flags that the financial profile can weigh on how the market prices the shares:
    • Supporters of the relative value angle point to the 0.2x P/S versus industry levels above 2x as a wide gap that could appeal to value focused investors.
    • On the other hand, negative equity and recent volatility fit with the picture of a company that is still unprofitable and whose modest 3.6% revenue growth rate trails the wider US market expectations of 10.3% a year.
