A solid business, but screening 39% overvalued on our models.

What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($67.91). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
  • Solid but not exceptional quality (66/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
  • A fairly wide model range ($35.99 to $67.91) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis

PC Connection, Inc (CNXN) currently trades at $84.14, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $51.05, implying the stock looks roughly 39.3% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 66/100 (solid quality), in the Technology 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, PC Connection, Inc generated revenue of $2.9B at a net margin of 3.0%. Revenue grew 3.0% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 9.7%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $192M. Fundamentals as of Jul 15, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $35.99 (bear case) to $67.91 (bull case); at $84.14, 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 54% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at -33% fair-value upside, at -39%, CNXN 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.
