Analysis
Foraco International SA (FAR) currently trades at C$2.82, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is C$2.75, implying the stock looks roughly 2.5% fairly valued today. The Quality Score stands at 46/100 (below-average quality), in the Basic Materials 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, Foraco International SA generated revenue of C$269M at a net margin of 5.5%. Revenue grew 20.4% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 14.5%. Net debt stands at C$72.3M. Fundamentals as of Jul 19, 2026
Our scenario range runs from C$2.06 (bear case) to C$3.44 (bull case); at C$2.82, 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 20% below its 52-week high and 80% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Basic Materials peers we cover trades at -34% fair-value upside, at -2%, FAR 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.
