Share price −0.7% over the past month.
Below-average quality, screening 89% undervalued on our models.
What matters now
- The price is below even our cautious bear case ($41.97). The market is more pessimistic than our downside scenario.
- Solid quality (45/100) at a price below fair value, the discount is the argument here, not the business quality.
- As a real-estate business, asset- and dividend-based methods carry more weight here than a standard DCF.

Analysis
Forestar Group (FOR) currently trades at $29.64, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $55.96, implying the stock looks roughly 88.8% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 45/100 (below-average quality), in the Real Estate 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, Forestar Group generated revenue of $1.7B at a net margin of 9.8%. Revenue declined 3.0% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 9.7%. Net debt stands at $438M. Fundamentals as of Jul 26, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $41.97 (bear case) to $69.95 (bull case); at $29.64, the current price sits below 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 4% below its 52-week high and 54% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Real Estate peers we cover trades at 32% fair-value upside, at 89%, FOR 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.
All 9 models by family
Widest divergence: Dividend Discount ($114.83) versus Asset-Based ($23.22). Highest evidence: Residual Income (76).
