Upturn Advisory & Investor View for OMER

10/19/2026: OMER (5-star) is a SELL. SELL for 2 days. Simulated Profits (36.82%). Updated daily EoD!

Omeros Corporation is a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing therapies for rare diseases and inflammatory conditions. Its primary business strengths lie in its proprietary MASP-2 and GPCR technology platforms, which support a niche pipeline. The main investment story centers on the potential regulatory approval of narsoplimab, which could provide significant upside. However, investors face high risks including binary regulatory outcomes, the lack of current commercial revenue, and intense competition from well-funded rivals. The stock may suit growth-oriented investors with a high risk tolerance who are looking for speculative exposure to drug development, and investors should closely monitor upcoming FDA communications and clinical data releases.

Upturn Scorecard

Upturn Star Rating

★★★★★
OMER receives a 2-star rating, supported by solid company fundamentals. The rating is constrained by weak unit economics, soft quantitative characteristics, and weak price momentum.

Company Fundamentals

★★★★★
OMER has solid overall fundamentals (4 stars), with moderate financial health, solid growth momentum, and solid ownership. In FY2025 versus FY2024, strong earnings growth (+97.9%) is partially offset by soft cash generation (FCF margin 0.0%), slightly negative revenue growth (+0.0%), soft profitability (net margin 0.0%).

Financial Health Rating

★★★★★
OMER's financial health is supported by strong efficiency, including operating-expense and cost-of-revenue discipline (opex 0.0% of revenue). Profitability is weak (1 stars), which helps explain the 3-star overall score.

Growth Momentum Score

★★★★★
Earnings growth is OMER's strongest growth driver at +97.9% FY2025 versus FY2024 (strong, 5 stars). By comparison, free-cash-flow growth (+22.0%, solid) is also solid, while revenue growth (+0.0%, slightly negative) holds the profile back, so recent growth is not broad-based across the business.

Ownership

★★★★★
Institutional ownership is 51.4% and approximately 95.7% of outstanding shares are publicly tradable, supporting liquidity and institutional participation. Insider ownership of 4.08% provides only moderate management-shareholder alignment.

BlackRock Inc 8.35%
Ingalls & Snyder LLC 5.06%
UBS Group AG 4.35%
Vanguard Capital Management, LLC 4.24%
State Street Corp 3.20%

Unit Economics (Per $1K Revenue)

★★★★★
OMER generates approximately $0 of gross profit, $-0 of operating income, and $-0 of free cash flow for every $1,000 of revenue. Based on FY2025 results. Weak margins explain the 1-star rating, with weak cash conversion and weak capital efficiency.

Economic Dimensions

★★★★★
Effective Tax Rate: -71.96% (Tax Credit)

Quantitative Style Profile

★★★★★
OMER has a liquid profile. Weak momentum is the primary drawback, while valuation that is moderately attractive rather than deeply discounted.
