Analysis
Aptiv PLC (APTV) currently trades at $46.30, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $34.30, implying the stock looks roughly 25.9% overvalued today. We read business quality at 43/100 (below-average quality), in the Consumer Cyclical 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, Aptiv PLC generated revenue of $20.7B at a net margin of 1.8%. Revenue grew 5.4% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 4.1%. Net debt stands at $6.2B. Fundamentals as of Jul 16, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $25.74 (bear case) to $42.88 (bull case); at $46.30, 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 last reported earnings sit well below what analysts expect (earnings in transition, for example after write-downs or an earnings dip); whether the stock is cheap or expensive hinges on the expected recovery actually arriving. Read the fair value with that caveat. The share trades about 48% below its 52-week high, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Cyclical peers we cover trades at -44% fair-value upside, at -26%, APTV 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 24 models by family
Widest divergence: Growth DCF ($54.52) versus Dividend Discount ($0.3400). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
