Fair value as of: Jul 20, 2026

From 3 valuation models · updated 20 days ago

Fair value updated Jul 20, 2026, revised from £9.44 to £8.61 (−8.8%) since Jul 15, 2026. Share price −7.4% over the past month.

Below-average quality, screening 145% undervalued on our models.

What matters now

  • The large discount to fair value meets weak quality (42/100). That raises the risk this is a value trap rather than a bargain.
  • The price is below even our cautious bear case (£5.29). 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.
  • A fairly wide model range (£5.29 to £10.94) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis

Ceres Power Holdings (CWR) currently trades at £3.51, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is £8.61, implying the stock looks roughly 145.2% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 42/100 (below-average quality), in the Industrials 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, Ceres Power Holdings generated revenue of £18.9M at a net margin of -38.5%. Revenue grew 23.6% year over year. It earns a return on equity of -6.8%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of £33.4M. Fundamentals as of Jul 20, 2026

Our scenario range runs from £5.29 (bear case) to £10.94 (bull case); at £3.51, 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. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at -48% fair-value upside, at 145%, CWR 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.
