What matters now

  • The model range is unusually wide ($135.16 to $473.65). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.
  • Solid but not exceptional quality (66/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.

Analysis

AppLovin Corporation (APP) currently trades at $335.67, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $181.37, implying the stock looks roughly 46.0% overvalued today. We read business quality at 66/100 (solid quality), in the Communication 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, AppLovin Corporation generated revenue of $6.2B at a net margin of 64.3%. Revenue grew 59.0% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 266.4%. Net debt stands at $1.1B. Fundamentals as of Jul 11, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $135.16 (bear case) to $473.65 (bull case); at $335.67, the current price sits within 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 55% below its 52-week high and 5% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Communication Services peers we cover trades at -1% fair-value upside, at -46%, APP 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.
