What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($295.67). The favourable scenario is already priced in.

Analysis

Elbit Systems Ltd (ESLT) currently trades at $857.00, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $235.13, implying the stock looks roughly 72.6% overvalued today. We read business quality at 60/100 (solid quality), in the Industrials 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, Elbit Systems Ltd generated revenue of $8.2B at a net margin of 7.1%. Revenue grew 15.5% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 15.6%. Net debt stands at $330M. Fundamentals as of Jul 14, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $165.73 (bear case) to $295.67 (bull case); at $857.00, 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 16% below its 52-week high and 111% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at -55% fair-value upside, at -73%, ESLT 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.
