Despite the strong fourth quarter figures, 2026 outlook and new product launches, Once Upon A Farm PBC’s recent share price performance has cooled, with a 1 day share price return of 7.27% decline and a 30 day share price return of 13.91% decline from US$18.87. This signals fading short term momentum after its post IPO interest.

With Once Upon A Farm posting strong sales figures, turning profitable in the latest quarter and guiding for further growth, yet seeing its shares pull back, investors now face the real question: is there an opportunity here, or is the market already pricing in what comes next?

Preferred price-to-sales of 3.3x: Is it justified?

On the numbers we have, Once Upon A Farm is currently valued at a P/S of 3.3x, which sits well above both its peer group and the wider US Food industry.

The P/S multiple compares the company’s market value with its annual revenue, so for every dollar of sales, investors are currently paying $3.30. For a business that is still loss making, this kind of multiple usually implies that the market is placing a lot of weight on future revenue growth and a path to sustained profitability rather than today’s earnings profile.

Here, that optimism is not coming cheaply. The P/S of 3.3x is described as expensive against a peer average of 0.8x and also against the US Food industry average of 0.7x. That is a steep premium and it suggests the share price already embeds higher expectations than many of its listed food peers, even though the company remains unprofitable and carries negative shareholders’ equity.

Result: Price-to-sales of 3.3x (OVERVALUED)

However, there are clear pressure points, including the current net loss of US$17.249 million and the risk that high growth expectations tied to a 3.3x P/S multiple may prove too optimistic.

Another way to look at value

Our DCF model tells a very different story to the 3.3x sales multiple. On this approach, Once Upon A Farm’s current price of $18.87 sits well above an estimated value of $2.65 per share, which points to an overvalued picture rather than a potential bargain.

You therefore have one method suggesting a rich sales multiple and another, the SWS DCF model, indicating an even larger premium. This raises the key question for you as an investor: are expectations already stretched, or do you think the cash flow profile can catch up to today’s price?

Look into how the SWS DCF model arrives at its fair value.
