What matters now
- The price is below even our cautious bear case ($110.75). The market is more pessimistic than our downside scenario.
- Solid quality (67/100) 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
Assured Guaranty Ltd (AGO) currently trades at $75.43, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $147.67, implying the stock looks roughly 95.8% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 67/100 (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, Assured Guaranty Ltd generated revenue of $814M at a net margin of 51.0%. Revenue declined 6.2% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 7.9%. Net debt stands at $1.3B. Fundamentals as of Jul 15, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $110.75 (bear case) to $184.58 (bull case); at $75.43, 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 share trades about 18% below its 52-week high and 4% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at 46% fair-value upside, at 96%, AGO 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 6 models by family
Widest divergence: Multiples ($147.67) versus Dividend Discount ($19.77). Highest evidence: Residual Income (76).
