Fair value updated Jul 13, 2026, revised from $146.53 to $147.08 (+0.4%) since Jun 24, 2026. Share price +17.4% over the past month.

A solid business, but screening 60% overvalued on our models.

What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($225.12). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
  • The model range is unusually wide ($70.90 to $225.12). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.
  • Solid but not exceptional quality (59/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.

Analysis

Burlington Stores, Inc (BURL) currently trades at $371.15, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $147.08, implying the stock looks roughly 60.4% overvalued today. We read business quality at 59/100 (solid quality), in the Consumer Cyclical 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, Burlington Stores, Inc generated revenue of $11.9B at a net margin of 5.2%. Revenue grew 14.1% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 39.1%. Net debt stands at $4.8B. Fundamentals as of Jul 13, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $70.90 (bear case) to $225.12 (bull case); at $371.15, 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 near its 52-week high and 70% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Cyclical peers we cover trades at -45% fair-value upside, at -60%, BURL 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.
