Exagen Diagnostics Inc looks under-valued against its niche peers and is dormant on financing cadence.
Raised $88M across 24 disclosed rounds, last modeled as Series B (a $15M–$40M round).
Modeled value is 0.43× the median modeled value of Series B Biotechnology companies in 2019–2021 (118 peers) — value vs value, same stage and era.
Valued on the biotech profile — its sector's growth and survival benchmarks differ from the market default, so the same raise is worth more or less here.
Last raise 7.5 yr ago; this sector typically re-raises about every 14 months.
Latest round stepped up 1.8× from the prior — scaling.
Synthesized from the figures below est. — every claim rests on a number shown on this page. Valuation uses the biotech sector profile.
Analyst read est. — computed against this company's niche peers in the same era. Inputs shown; not a quoted figure.
Under-valued
Modeled value is 0.43× the median modeled value of Series B Biotechnology companies in 2019–2021 (118 peers) — value vs value, same stage and era.
Dormant
Last raise 7.5 yr ago; this sector typically re-raises about every 14 months.
Silent for over 3× the sector's normal cadence.
Procedural diagnosis est. — rule-based common-sense checks over the filing pattern, issuer name, activity cadence, and surfaced operating evidence.
Issuer-vehicle patternmedium confidence
Exagen Diagnostics Inc behaves more like a recurring private-offering issuer than a conventional venture-backed operating company.
Issuer structure
Company-like
No recurring-offering pattern strong enough to override normal financing interpretation.
Lifecycle
17.2 yr record
Peak capital year was 2016 with $22.9M across 6 filings.
Market position
ahead of 89% of Biotechnology peers
Capital scale is ahead of 89% of Biotechnology peers; modeled value is above 75% of peers by modeled value. Large capital with mid-pack modeled value can signal an issuer/program profile rather than operating-company growth.
Valuation reliability
Normal applicability
Stage/dilution valuation models are weakest when the issuer is broad-sector, recurring, or vehicle-like.
Operating evidence
Sparse
No clear CEO/founder/principal role is surfaced, so operating-company confidence is lower.
Data quality
Consistent
Canonical totals and visible filing detail are broadly aligned.
What triggered this
No clearly named CEO/founder/principal role in the public records surfaced here.
No verified homepage on the profile yet.
Capital program peaked in 2016: $22.9M across 6 filings.
Largest single filing was $16.8M on 2016-01-19.
How to read the page
Read this less like a startup funding journey and more like a capital-raising program.
Stage-based valuation and peer labels have lower applicability for this pattern.
The more important signal is lifecycle: repeated filings ended years ago, so current activity needs outside confirmation.

How it compares to the market
Benchmarked against 4291 companies in Biotechnology. Each bar is a median (the middle company, not an average — outliers don't skew it). Two yardsticks: real money raised (reported on Form D) and modeled value (our estimate est.). These are whole-sector medians across all stages, except the per-stage row.
Total raised — vs sector median (real $, all stages)▲ 12× above median

Latest round — vs other Series B rounds in sector (real $, this stage)▼ 0.4× of median

This company$261.4M
Sector median$64.2M
Raised more than 89% of sector peers (real $). Modeled value above 75% of peers (estimate).
Niche peers — same stage & era
A tighter cohort than the sector chart above — only companies at the same stage (Series B) that last raised in the same ~3-year era, ranked by modeled valueest. (not money raised). This is the exact set the analyst read compares against, so a like-for-like cohort is what makes "over/under-valued" meaningful. This company ranks #100 of 118.
Stage is inferred from round size est., not reported on the filing — a round's dollar size maps to a bucket: Pre-Seed <$1.0M · Seed $1.0M–$4.0M · Series A $4.0M–$15M · Series B $15M–$40M · Series C $40M–$100M · Series D+ $100M–$400M · Growth/Late >$400M.
