From 12 valuation models · updated 21 days ago
Share price +3.0% over the past month.
A solid business, screening 51% undervalued on our models.
What matters now
- The price is below even our cautious bear case (£2.84). The market is more pessimistic than our downside scenario.
- Solid quality (68/100) at a price below fair value, the discount is the argument here, not the business quality.
- For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

Analysis
Aberdeen Group (ABDN) currently trades at £2.50, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is £3.79, implying the stock looks roughly 51.4% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 68/100 (solid quality), in the Financial Services 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, Aberdeen Group generated revenue of £1.3B at a net margin of 28.9%. Revenue grew 1.6% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 7.8%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of £1.2B. Fundamentals as of Jul 20, 2026
Our scenario range runs from £2.84 (bear case) to £4.74 (bull case); at £2.50, 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. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at -12% fair-value upside, at 51%, ABDN 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 12 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models (£3.47) versus Dividend Discount (£1.40). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).

A separate quality layer scores the fundamentals. Every input is real reported data, nothing guessed.
