Share price −1.2% over the past month.
Below-average quality, and screening another 74% overvalued on our models.
What matters now
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($80.31). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- Solid but not exceptional quality (45/100) 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
Arthur J. Gallagher & Co (AJG) currently trades at $251.74, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $64.24, implying the stock looks roughly 74.5% overvalued today. We read business quality at 45/100 (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, Arthur J. Gallagher & Co generated revenue of $14.2B at a net margin of 11.4%. Revenue grew 34.6% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 7.0%. Net debt stands at $12.6B. Fundamentals as of Jul 11, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $48.19 (bear case) to $80.31 (bull case); at $251.74, 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 25% below its 52-week high and 32% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at -38% fair-value upside, at -74%, AJG 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 26 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models ($124.65) versus Dividend Discount ($41.79). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
