From 7 valuation models · updated 20 days ago
Share price −2.9% over the past month.
Below-average quality, screening 62% undervalued on our models.
What matters now
- The large discount to fair value meets weak quality (22/100). That raises the risk this is a value trap rather than a bargain.
- The price is below even our cautious bear case ($100.74). The market is more pessimistic than our downside scenario.
- The large gap to fair value rests on thin data (low evidence): fewer applicable models and a shorter history. Read it with extra caution.
- The models converge in a tight band ($100.74 to $104.82), unusually little disagreement for a valuation.

Analysis
Circle Internet Group (CRCL) currently trades at $63.28, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $102.78, implying the stock looks roughly 62.4% undervalued today. We read business quality at 22/100 (below-average quality), in the Financial Services sector. Bull case: trading below our estimate, it may offer upside if the fundamentals hold. Bear case: a low price can be a value trap when quality is weak or the data is thin (evidence: low), always confirm before acting.
Over the trailing twelve months, Circle Internet Group generated revenue of $2.9B at a net margin of -2.8%. Revenue grew 20.0% year over year. It earns a return on equity of -3.0%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $77.4B. Fundamentals as of Jul 18, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $100.74 (bear case) to $104.82 (bull case); at $63.28, the current price sits below 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 79% below its 52-week high and 27% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at 11% fair-value upside, at 62%, CRCL screens cheaper 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 7 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models ($131.20) versus Asset-Based ($3.20). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
