From 7 valuation models · updated 29 days ago

Fair value updated Jul 11, 2026, revised from $40.68 to $21.24 (−47.8%) since Jun 24, 2026. Share price +16.1% over the past month.

A solid business, but screening 76% overvalued on our models.

What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($26.39). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
  • The large gap to fair value rests on thin data (low evidence): fewer applicable models and a shorter history. Read it with extra caution.
  • Solid but not exceptional quality (61/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.

Analysis

Ambarella, Inc (AMBA) currently trades at $86.78, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $21.24, implying the stock looks roughly 75.5% 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: low).

Over the trailing twelve months, Ambarella, Inc generated revenue of $405M at a net margin of -17.2%. Revenue grew 16.9% year over year. It earns a return on equity of -11.8%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $178M. Fundamentals as of Jul 11, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $16.08 (bear case) to $26.39 (bull case); at $86.78, 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 10% below its 52-week high and 80% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at -75% fair-value upside, at -76%, AMBA 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.
