Albion Enterprise VCT PLC (AAEV) Fair Value & Analysis
Financial Services · GB · Market cap 280M GBX
Fair value as of: Jul 13, 2026
From 8 valuation models · updated 28 days ago
Share price −2.8% over the past month.
Below-average quality, and screening another 26% overvalued on our models.
What matters now
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (£0.9860). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- Solid but not exceptional quality (46/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
- For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

Analysis
Albion Enterprise VCT PLC (AAEV) currently trades at £1.08, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is £0.7905, implying the stock looks roughly 26.5% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 46/100 (below-average quality), in the Financial Services 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, Albion Enterprise VCT PLC generated revenue of £9.6M at a net margin of 33.3%. Revenue declined 86.8% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 1.6%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of £74.1M. Fundamentals as of Jul 13, 2026
Our scenario range runs from £0.5950 (bear case) to £0.9860 (bull case); at £1.08, 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. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at -12% fair-value upside, at -26%, AAEV 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 8 models by family
Widest divergence: Earnings-Based (£1.91) versus Multiples (£0.7100). Highest evidence: Residual Income (76).
