Analysis

Brady Corporation (BRC) currently trades at $97.02, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $73.43, implying the stock looks roughly 24.3% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 69/100 (solid quality), in the Industrials 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, Brady Corporation generated revenue of $1.6B at a net margin of 12.9%. Revenue grew 13.8% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 16.7%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $15.8M. Fundamentals as of Jul 11, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $47.79 (bear case) to $103.77 (bull case); at $97.02, 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 49% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at 10% fair-value upside, at -24%, BRC 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.

A separate quality layer scores the fundamentals. Every input is real reported data, nothing guessed.
