Analysis
The First Bancorp, Inc (FNLC) currently trades at $35.38, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $39.65, implying the stock looks roughly 12.1% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 59/100 (solid quality), in the Financial Services sector. Bull case: trading below our estimate, it may offer upside if the fundamentals hold. Bear case: a low price can be a value trap when quality is weak or the data is thin (evidence: high), always confirm before acting.
Over the trailing twelve months, The First Bancorp, Inc generated revenue of $96.0M at a net margin of 37.8%. Revenue grew 14.5% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 13.3%. Net debt stands at $156M. Fundamentals as of Jul 26, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $29.74 (bear case) to $49.57 (bull case); at $35.38, 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 near its 52-week high and 58% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at 42% fair-value upside, at 12%, FNLC 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 6 models by family
Widest divergence: Multiples ($35.16) versus Asset-Based ($16.82). Highest evidence: Residual Income (76).
