Appears in These Scanners

This stock currently matches 8 of our scanner strategies — each hit links to the scanner.

Only genuine hits from verified scanners count; pure ranking metrics (P/E, P/S, and similar, which just sort the whole universe) don't count as a hit. Scanners marked in red are red-flag signals (risk/short scanners) — appearing there is not a seal of approval. View all scanners

AI Rating

Neutral

Scilex verkauft nicht-opioide Schmerzmittel; im eigenen Geschäft kommt KI nicht vor: keine KI-Umsatzquelle, kein belegter operativer KI-Einsatz. Der 10-K 2025 enthält nur den generischen Risikoabschnitt »Risks Related to Artificial Intelligence« ohne konkreten Bezug zum eigenen Geschäftsmodell (zählt laut Kriterienkatalog nicht als »bedroht«); der 10-Q Q1 2026 nennt lediglich ein unverbindliches Term Sheet über eine KI-Apotheken-Plattform eines Partners (Wellgistics/DelivMeds AI). Die KI-Anmutung der Aktie stammt allein aus dem Namen der Finanzbeteiligung Datavault AI (~48 Prozent, per Bitcoin bezahlt) — eine Beteiligung ist kein KI-Produktumsatz. Negativ-Befund per Volltext-Prüfung von 2×10-K und 4×10-Q auf »artificial intelligence«, »machine learning«, »generative«: in den Filings vor GJ 2025 null Treffer (alle »generative«-Funde sind »regenerative/degenerative«-Fehltreffer aus der Medizin).

What Do These Terms Mean?
EPS (Earnings Per Share):
Quarterly profit divided by the total share count — how much of the profit works out to a single share.
YoY (Year over Year):
Change versus the same quarter a year ago — this is how you compare without seasonal distortion (e.g. the holiday shopping season).
Sales:
All revenue for the quarter, before any costs are deducted — the top line of the income statement.
Net Margin:
What percentage of sales is left over as profit in the end. Negative means the company is posting a loss.
OCF (Operating Cash Flow):
The cash that actually flows into the till from the core business during the quarter — harder to dress up than book profit.
FCF (Free Cash Flow):
Operating cash flow minus capital expenditures — the money that's genuinely free to use, say for paying down debt, buybacks, or dividends.
