Analysis
Agilent Technologies, Inc (A) currently trades at $141.34, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $62.70, implying the stock looks roughly 55.6% overvalued today. We read business quality at 67/100 (solid quality), in the Healthcare sector. Bear case: priced above our estimate, the market already discounts strong expectations. Bull case: above-average quality can justify a premium, the entry price still matters most (evidence: high).
Over the trailing twelve months, Agilent Technologies, Inc generated revenue of $7.2B at a net margin of 19.6%. Revenue grew 10.0% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 21.3%. Net debt stands at $1.6B. Fundamentals as of Jul 18, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $41.53 (bear case) to $102.54 (bull case); at $141.34, the current price sits above 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 share trades about 11% below its 52-week high and 30% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Healthcare peers we cover trades at -48% fair-value upside, at -56%, A screens richer 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 24 models by family
Widest divergence: Growth Earnings ($72.05) versus Dividend Discount ($12.95). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
