Analysis
Elevance Health, Inc (ELV) currently trades at $391.40, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $431.40, implying the stock looks roughly 10.2% undervalued today. We read business quality at 65/100 (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, Elevance Health, Inc generated revenue of $200B at a net margin of 2.6%. Revenue grew 2.6% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 12.1%. Net debt stands at $23.7B. Fundamentals as of Jul 17, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $196.19 (bear case) to $669.86 (bull case); at $391.40, 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 about 5% below its 52-week high and 45% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Healthcare peers we cover trades at -15% fair-value upside, at 10%, ELV 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 26 models by family
Widest divergence: Multiples ($443.83) versus Dividend Discount ($113.50). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
