Analysis
NV Bekaert SA (BEKB) currently trades at €38.35, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is €39.14, implying the stock looks roughly 2.1% fairly valued today. The Quality Score stands at 63/100 (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, NV Bekaert SA generated revenue of €3.7B at a net margin of 1.8%. Revenue declined 7.6% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 2.9%. Net debt stands at €190M. Fundamentals as of Aug 6, 2026
Our scenario range runs from €29.34 (bear case) to €48.92 (bull case); at €38.35, 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 12% below its 52-week high and 20% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at -72% fair-value upside, at 2%, BEKB 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: DCF Models (€59.60) versus Earnings-Based (€16.08). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
