Analysis
Balfour Beatty plc (BLFBY) currently trades at $24.13, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $25.20, implying the stock looks roughly 4.4% fairly valued today. The Quality Score stands at 72/100 (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, Balfour Beatty plc generated revenue of $9.5B at a net margin of 2.8%. Revenue grew 14.2% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 23.1%. The stock trades on a trailing P/E of 16.9. Fundamentals as of Jul 15, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $18.90 (bear case) to $31.50 (bull case); at $24.13, 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 2% below its 52-week high and 95% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at -45% fair-value upside, at 4%, BLFBY 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 26 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models ($28.68) versus Asset-Based ($3.22). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
