What matters now
- The price is below even our cautious bear case (R$4.19). The market is more pessimistic than our downside scenario.
- Solid quality (57/100) at a price below fair value, the discount is the argument here, not the business quality.
- A fairly wide model range (R$4.19 to R$9.01) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

How to read this chart

Analysis
GAEC Educacao SA (ANIM3) currently trades at R$2.78, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is R$7.21, implying the stock looks roughly 159.4% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 57/100 (solid quality), in the Consumer Defensive 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: medium), always confirm before acting.
Over the trailing twelve months, GAEC Educacao SA generated revenue of R$4.1B at a net margin of 3.3%. Revenue grew 7.7% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 8.7%. Net debt stands at R$5.5B. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026
Our scenario range runs from R$4.19 (bear case) to R$9.01 (bull case); at R$2.78, 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 47% below its 52-week high, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Defensive peers we cover trades at 8% fair-value upside, at 159%, ANIM3 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 26 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models (R$11.16) versus Dividend Discount (R$2.39). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 52 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 23
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.
