Is Polynovo expensive compared with its peers?

How has Polynovo stock performed?
Over six months to 6 Nov 2026 the shares returned -11.9% against -17.4% for the median peer; over one year -27.4%.

How these numbers are made. Returns are close-to-close in local currency. Revenue growth and margins are trailing twelve months. Req g is the revenue growth that today's enterprise value requires for seven years at the company's own cost of capital; Delivered g is what it actually grew; the gap is the hurdle (honest precision about ±8 points, so read the ranking more than the decimal). No fair values, price targets or analyst ratings are shown, by design. Method and validation.
