Analysis

Burckhardt Compression Holding (BCHN) currently trades at CHF 519.00, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is CHF 645.65, implying the stock looks roughly 24.4% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 68/100 (solid quality), in the Industrials 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: high), always confirm before acting.

Over the trailing twelve months, Burckhardt Compression Holding generated revenue of CHF 1.1B at a net margin of 9.5%. Revenue grew 2.8% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 36.3%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of CHF 111M. Fundamentals as of Jul 16, 2026

Our scenario range runs from CHF 430.86 (bear case) to CHF 845.55 (bull case); at CHF 519.00, 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 30% below its 52-week high and 11% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at -48% fair-value upside, at 24%, BCHN 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.

Widest divergence: Growth Earnings (CHF 625.08) versus Asset-Based (CHF 71.77). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
