  • Solid quality (55/100) at a price below fair value, the discount is the argument here, not the business quality.
  • A fairly wide model range ($9.76 to $18.15) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis

Emergent BioSolutions Inc (EBS) currently trades at $4.84, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $14.52, implying the stock looks roughly 200.0% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 55/100 (solid quality), in the Healthcare 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: high), always confirm before acting.

Over the trailing twelve months, Emergent BioSolutions Inc generated revenue of $677M at a net margin of -1.3%. Revenue declined 29.7% year over year. It earns a return on equity of -1.6%. Net debt stands at $367M. Fundamentals as of Jul 24, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $9.76 (bear case) to $18.15 (bull case); at $4.84, 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 66% below its 52-week high, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Healthcare peers we cover trades at -49% fair-value upside, at 200%, EBS 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.
