What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($102.38). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
  • Weak quality (40/100) and above fair value at the same time, the margin of safety is missing on both counts.
  • The large gap to fair value rests on thin data (low evidence): fewer applicable models and a shorter history. Read it with extra caution.

Analysis

Biglari Holdings Inc (BH) currently trades at $383.75, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $76.11, implying the stock looks roughly 404.3% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 40/100 (below-average quality), in the Consumer Cyclical sector. Bull case: the DCF Models group reads highest at a median of $254.52 per share, and 0 of the 15 models we run sit above the $383.75 price. Bear case: the Earnings-Based group reads lowest at $65.44, and 15 of the 15 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is low.

Over the trailing twelve months, Biglari Holdings Inc generated revenue of $398M at a net margin of −4.7%. Revenue grew 2.6% year over year. It earns a return on equity of −3.5%. Net debt stands at $89.9M. Fundamentals as of Aug 27, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $63.75 (bear case) to $102.38 (bull case); at $383.75, 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 21% below its 52-week high and 63% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Cyclical peers we cover trades at −47% fair-value upside, at −80%, BH screens richer than that median.

Fair Value models

Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted, family-balanced 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. Every input is real reported data, nothing guessed.

Model Bear Bear = the cautious scenario: the same model computed with conservative anchors (lower growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bull it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target.BaseBull Bull = the optimistic scenario: the same model computed with favourable anchors (higher growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bear it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target. Evidence

Non-valuation factor families (profitability, growth, cashflow, financial strength, momentum …), each academically grounded. Valuation itself sits in the Fair Value and is deliberately excluded here to avoid double-counting.

All values are scores from 0 to 100 (100 = best against fixed, research-based bands), not percentages. The three market factors (momentum, 52-week proximity, low volatility) are displayed but carry zero weight in the headline number: market sentiment is not a business property.
