Analysis

Forum Energy Technologies, Inc (FET) currently trades at $74.23, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $17.26, implying the stock looks roughly 76.8% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 54/100 (solid quality), in the Energy 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, Forum Energy Technologies, Inc generated revenue of $807M at a net margin of -0.8%. Revenue grew 8.0% year over year. It earns a return on equity of -2.1%. Net debt stands at $185M. Fundamentals as of Jul 16, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $12.88 (bear case) to $17.26 (bull case); at $74.23, 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 310% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Energy peers we cover trades at -36% fair-value upside, at -77%, FET 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.
