Fair value as of: Aug 20, 2026
From 15 valuation models · updated yesterday
Fair value updated Aug 20, 2026, revised from R15.79 to R256.46 (+1,524.2%) since Aug 13, 2026. Share price +13.3% over the past month.
A solid business, but screening 70% overvalued on our models.
What matters now
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (R418.89). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- The model range is unusually wide (R144.61 to R418.89). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.
- Solid but not exceptional quality (51/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.

Analysis
Anglo American PLC (AGL) currently trades at R867.70, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is R256.46, implying the stock looks roughly 70.4% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 51/100 (solid quality), in the Basic Materials 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: medium).
Over the trailing twelve months, Anglo American PLC generated revenue of 18.5B ZAR at a net margin of -20.2%. Revenue grew 17.5% year over year. It earns a return on equity of -2.7%. Net debt stands at 8.1B ZAR. Fundamentals as of Aug 20, 2026
Our scenario range runs from R144.61 (bear case) to R418.89 (bull case); at R867.70, 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 Basic Materials peers we cover trades at -40% fair-value upside, at -70%, AGL 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 15 models by family
Widest divergence: Multiples (R524.96) versus Dividend Discount (R39.37). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).

How we calculate Fair Value

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