Financial Services · GB · Market cap 203M GBX
Fair value as of: Jul 17, 2026
From 2 valuation models · updated 24 days ago
Share price −6.3% over the past month.
A solid business, but screening 79% overvalued on our models.
What matters now
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (£0.1300). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- Solid but not exceptional quality (50/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
- For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

Analysis
Baronsmead Second Venture Trust plc (BMD) currently trades at £0.4760, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is £0.1000, implying the stock looks roughly 79.0% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 50/100 (solid quality), in the Financial Services sector. Bear case: priced above our estimate, the market already discounts strong expectations. Bull case: above-average quality can justify a premium, the entry price still matters most (evidence: high).
Over the trailing twelve months, Baronsmead Second Venture Trust plc generated revenue of £8.3M at a net margin of 30.9%. Revenue grew 143.3% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 1.2%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of £3.1M. Fundamentals as of Jul 17, 2026
Our scenario range runs from £0.0800 (bear case) to £0.1300 (bull case); at £0.4760, 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. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at -12% fair-value upside, at -79%, BMD screens richer 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 2 models by family
Widest divergence: Multiples (£0.4400) versus Asset-Based (£0.3500). Highest evidence: P/B Multiple (55).
