Analysis
Corteva, Inc (CTVA) currently trades at $76.86, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $27.81, implying the stock looks roughly 63.8% overvalued today. We read business quality at 68/100 (solid 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: high).
Over the trailing twelve months, Corteva, Inc generated revenue of $17.9B at a net margin of 6.5%. Revenue grew 11.0% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 5.1%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $1.9B. Fundamentals as of Jul 14, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $20.86 (bear case) to $34.76 (bull case); at $76.86, 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 10% below its 52-week high and 28% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Basic Materials peers we cover trades at -13% fair-value upside, at -64%, CTVA 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.
