What matters now
- The large discount to fair value meets weak quality (44/100). That raises the risk this is a value trap rather than a bargain.
- Our model range runs from €39.45 (bear) to €65.75 (bull), base €52.60. The closer the price sits to the lower half, the larger the margin of safety.
- Quality 44/100 (below-average quality) with high evidence: the data supports the verdict.

Analysis
Traton SE (8TRA) currently trades at €39.28, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is €52.60, implying the stock looks roughly 33.9% undervalued today. We read business quality at 44/100 (below-average quality), in the Industrials sector. Bull case: trading below our estimate, it may offer upside if the fundamentals hold. Bear case: a low price can be a value trap when quality is weak or the data is thin (evidence: high), always confirm before acting.
Over the trailing twelve months, Traton SE generated revenue of €43.7B at a net margin of 3.0%. Revenue declined 3.5% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 6.9%. Net debt stands at €24.2B. Fundamentals as of Jul 16, 2026
Our scenario range runs from €39.45 (bear case) to €65.75 (bull case); at €39.28, the current price sits below that range. Bear and bull are the same models run on conservative and optimistic assumptions (margins, growth, valuation multiples), so a plausible valuation range, not a price target. The last reported earnings sit well below what analysts expect (earnings in transition, for example after write-downs or an earnings dip); whether the stock is cheap or expensive hinges on the expected recovery actually arriving. Read the fair value with that caveat. The share trades near its 52-week high and 52% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at 12% fair-value upside, at 34%, 8TRA screens cheaper than that median.
Fair Value models
Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted blend. Evidence (0–100) measures how completely this model’s inputs are available: well-fed models carry more weight in the blend. The spread across models is intentional, each one stresses a different value driver; dividend models, for instance, come out structurally low when payout is small.
All 17 models by family
Widest divergence: Growth Earnings (€55.41) versus Economic Profit (€16.78). Highest evidence: Residual Income (76).
