Fair value as of: Jul 20, 2026
From 8 valuation models · updated 21 days ago
Share price +7.0% over the past month.
A solid business, but screening 24% overvalued on our models.
What matters now
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (A$0.4800). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- Solid but not exceptional quality (63/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
- For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

Analysis
Ariadne Australia Limited (ARA) currently trades at A$0.5000, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is A$0.3800, implying the stock looks roughly 24.0% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 63/100 (solid quality), in the Financial 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: medium).
Over the trailing twelve months, Ariadne Australia Limited generated revenue of A$9.9M at a net margin of 43.8%. Revenue declined 4.6% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 3.6%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of A$12.5M. Fundamentals as of Jul 20, 2026
Our scenario range runs from A$0.2900 (bear case) to A$0.4800 (bull case); at A$0.5000, 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 8% below its 52-week high and 26% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at -12% fair-value upside, at -24%, ARA 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 8 models by family
Widest divergence: Earnings-Based (A$0.7900) versus Dividend Discount (A$0.2800). Highest evidence: Residual Income (76).
