Analysis
AstroNova, Inc (ALOT) currently trades at $28.94, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $5.81, implying the stock looks roughly 79.9% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 61/100 (solid quality), in the Technology 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, AstroNova, Inc generated revenue of $152M at a net margin of -0.9%. Revenue grew 4.4% year over year. It earns a return on equity of -1.8%. Net debt stands at $37.9M. Fundamentals as of Jul 14, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $3.13 (bear case) to $8.48 (bull case); at $28.94, 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 near its 52-week high and 316% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at -67% fair-value upside, at -80%, ALOT 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 14 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models ($8.36) versus Dividend Discount ($0.2200). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
