What matters now
- The large discount to fair value meets weak quality (44/100). That raises the risk this is a value trap rather than a bargain.
- The model range is unusually wide (kr 26.82 to kr 77.28). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.

Analysis
Elkem ASA (ELK) currently trades at kr 33.86, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is kr 52.04, implying the stock looks roughly 53.7% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 44/100 (below-average quality), in the Basic Materials 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: medium), always confirm before acting.
Over the trailing twelve months, Elkem ASA generated revenue of 16.3B NOK at a net margin of -2.6%. Revenue declined 5.4% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 1.7%. Net debt stands at 8.9B NOK. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026
Our scenario range runs from kr 26.82 (bear case) to kr 77.28 (bull case); at kr 33.86, the current price sits within 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 near its 52-week high and 75% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Basic Materials peers we cover trades at -68% fair-value upside, at 54%, ELK 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 8 models by family
Widest divergence: Asset-Based (kr 44.21) versus Earnings-Based (kr 1.79). Highest evidence: ROIC Compounder (72).
