Fair value as of: Aug 13, 2026
From 1 valuation models · updated 4 days ago
Share price −90.9% over the past month.
Below-average quality, and screening another 16% overvalued on our models.
What matters now
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($0.0043). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- Weak quality (26/100) and above fair value at the same time, the margin of safety is missing on both counts.
- The models converge in a tight band ($0.0041 to $0.0043), unusually little disagreement for a valuation.
- Evidence is limited here (fewer models, shorter history), so the fair value is a rougher estimate than usual.

Analysis
Crown Electrokinetics Corp. (CRKN) currently trades at $0.0050, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $0.0042, implying the stock looks roughly 16.0% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 26/100 (below-average quality), in the Basic Materials 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: low).
Trailing-twelve-month revenue stands at $21.8M. Net debt stands at $1.1M. The stock trades on a trailing P/E of 0.0 (as of Jun 19, 2026). Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $0.0041 (bear case) to $0.0043 (bull case); at $0.0050, 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. For context, the median of 10 Basic Materials peers we cover trades at -68% fair-value upside, at -16%, CRKN 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.
