Analysis

Ardmore Shipping Corporation (ASC) currently trades at $16.71, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $14.07, implying the stock looks roughly 15.8% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 49/100 (below-average quality), in the Industrials 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, Ardmore Shipping Corporation generated revenue of $324M at a net margin of 18.0%. Revenue grew 18.8% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 9.0%. Net debt stands at $82.0M. Fundamentals as of Jul 14, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $10.55 (bear case) to $17.59 (bull case); at $16.71, 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 15% below its 52-week high and 85% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at 67% fair-value upside, at -16%, ASC 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.
