Incorrect. Alternative to negative trailing price-to-earnings ratio, practitioners may use price-to-cash-flow ratio because it is possible cash flow would be positive in spite of a small loss.

Incorrect. Alternative to negative trailing price-to-earnings ratio, practitioners may use leading price-to-earnings ratio by replacing last year’s loss with forecasted earnings which may be positive.
