Analysis

Caris Life Sciences, Inc (CAI) currently trades at $22.74, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $3.56, implying the stock looks roughly 84.3% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 47/100 (below-average quality), in the Healthcare 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, Caris Life Sciences, Inc generated revenue of $907M at a net margin of 3.8%. Revenue grew 78.8% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 28.4%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $419M. Fundamentals as of Jul 15, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $2.99 (bear case) to $4.14 (bull case); at $22.74, 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 46% below its 52-week high and 60% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Healthcare peers we cover trades at -43% fair-value upside, at -84%, CAI 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.
