Deep Analysis

Return on equity (ROE) measures how much profit a company generates from shareholders' money, and a -39.0% value means MRNA is currently losing money on its equity base.

That sits far below the sector median of 13.6%, placing the stock at the 4th percentile among sector peers. The year-over-year change is not available, but the quarter-over-quarter change is -6.6%, with ROE moving from -36.6% to -39.0% in the latest period. A deeply negative ROE that is also declining points to persistent shareholder value destruction and a higher risk of continued losses. This metric contradicts any optimistic outlook and directly supports the overall CAUTIOUS verdict.
