Analysis
Eaton Corporation (ETN) currently trades at $448.19, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $171.92, implying the stock looks roughly 61.6% overvalued today. We read business quality at 69/100 (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, Eaton Corporation generated revenue of $28.5B at a net margin of 14.0%. Revenue grew 16.8% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 20.8%. Net debt stands at $10.5B. Fundamentals as of Jul 12, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $106.74 (bear case) to $233.77 (bull case); at $448.19, 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 near its 52-week high and 45% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at -42% fair-value upside, at -62%, ETN 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.
All 26 models by family
Widest divergence: Growth Earnings ($181.87) versus Asset-Based ($33.52). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
