Financial Services · US · Market cap $9.4B
Fair value as of: Jul 19, 2026
From 26 valuation models · updated 19 days ago
Share price −7.9% over the past month.
A solid business, but screening 52% overvalued on our models.
What matters now
- The model range is unusually wide ($52.90 to $228.30). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.
- Solid but not exceptional quality (69/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
- For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

How to read this chart
60‑month range $56.84 – $232.57 · fair‑value band $52.90 – $228.30 · the $205.66 price screens above the $97.97 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). Dashed = 300-day average. As of Jul 19, 2026.
Analysis
FirstCash Holdings (FCFS) currently trades at $205.66, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $97.97, implying the stock looks roughly 52.4% overvalued today. We read business quality at 69/100 (solid quality), in the Financial Services 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, FirstCash Holdings generated revenue of $3.9B at a net margin of 9.2%. Revenue grew 25.7% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 16.3%. Net debt stands at $2.7B. Fundamentals as of Jul 19, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $52.90 (bear case) to $228.30 (bull case); at $205.66, 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 13% below its 52-week high and 74% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at -41% fair-value upside, at -52%, FCFS 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: DCF Models ($191.93) versus Dividend Discount ($24.45). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
