What matters now

• The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($0.0400). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
• Weak quality (39/100) and above fair value at the same time, the margin of safety is missing on both counts.
• The model range is unusually wide ($0.0100 to $0.0400). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.
• The large gap to fair value rests on thin data (low evidence): fewer applicable models and a shorter history. Read it with extra caution.

Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings Inc (CCO) currently trades at $2.38, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $0.0100, implying the stock looks roughly 23,709.5% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 39/100 (below-average quality), in the Communication Services sector. How firm this estimate is: it rests on 14 models at a data quality of 95/100, which puts the evidence level at low.

Our scenario range runs from $0.0100 (bear case) to $0.0400 (bull case); at $2.38, 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 2% below its 52-week high and 138% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Communication Services peers we cover trades at −13% fair-value upside, at −100%, CCO screens richer than that median.

Fair Value models

Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted, family-balanced 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. Every input is real reported data, nothing guessed.

Widest divergence: Multiples ($1.65) versus Dividend Discount ($0.0100). Highest evidence: 5Y EBITDA Exit (69).
