From 13 valuation models · updated 25 days ago

Share price +15.4% over the past month.

A solid business, screening 54% undervalued on our models.

What matters now

  • The price is below even our cautious bear case ($124.99). The market is more pessimistic than our downside scenario.
  • The model range is unusually wide ($124.99 to $338.42). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.
  • Solid quality (66/100) at a price below fair value, the discount is the argument here, not the business quality.
  • For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

Analysis

Bread Financial Holdings (BFH) currently trades at $108.32, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $166.65, implying the stock looks roughly 53.9% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 66/100 (solid quality), in the Financial Services 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, Bread Financial Holdings generated revenue of $2.6B at a net margin of 21.2%. Revenue grew 6.1% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 17.5%. Net debt stands at $789M. Fundamentals as of Jul 16, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $124.99 (bear case) to $338.42 (bull case); at $108.32, the current price sits below 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 near its 52-week high and 123% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at -41% fair-value upside, at 54%, BFH 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.
