Price vs Fair Value (5 years)

€3.42 €0.2020 Fair Value €0.5052 Jun 2021 Aug 2026

White line = price, green steps = our fair value per fiscal year, dashed = 300-day average. As of Aug 13, 2026.

How to read this chart

60‑month range €0.2020 – €3.42 · fair‑value band €0.4134 – €0.5684 · the €0.6140 price screens above the €0.5052 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). 2 fiscal years are left out: there the valuation rested on only a fraction of the usual models. Dashed = 300-day average.

Analysis

Mare Nostrum (ALMAR) currently trades at €0.6140, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is €0.5052, implying the stock looks roughly 17.7% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 53/100 (solid quality), in the Industrials 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, Mare Nostrum generated revenue of €110M at a net margin of 21.3%. Revenue grew 0.1% year over year. The stock trades on a trailing P/E of 0.3. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026

Our scenario range runs from €0.4134 (bear case) to €0.5684 (bull case); at €0.6140, 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 49% below its 52-week high and 112% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at 22% fair-value upside, at -18%, ALMAR 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.

Model Bear Bear = the cautious scenario: the same model computed with conservative anchors (lower growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bull it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target.BaseBull Bull = the optimistic scenario: the same model computed with favourable anchors (higher growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bear it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target. Evidence

Non-valuation factor families (profitability, growth, cashflow, financial strength, momentum …), each academically grounded. Valuation itself sits in the Fair Value and is deliberately excluded here to avoid double-counting.

All values are scores from 0 to 100 (100 = best against fixed, research-based bands), not percentages. The three market factors (momentum, 52-week proximity, low volatility) are displayed but carry zero weight in the headline number: market sentiment is not a business property.
