Analysis
Certara, Inc (CERT) currently trades at $8.20, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $3.44, implying the stock looks roughly 58.1% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 63/100 (solid 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, Certara, Inc generated revenue of $420M at a net margin of -3.6%. Revenue grew 0.9% year over year. It earns a return on equity of -1.4%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $178M. Fundamentals as of Jul 15, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $2.87 (bear case) to $4.01 (bull case); at $8.20, 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 41% below its 52-week high and 84% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Healthcare peers we cover trades at -53% fair-value upside, at -58%, CERT 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 16 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models ($6.99) versus Dividend Discount ($0.0200). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
