What matters now

- For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

Analysis
First Bank (FRBA) currently trades at $18.63, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $22.64, implying the stock looks roughly 21.5% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 47/100 (below-average 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, First Bank generated revenue of $134M at a net margin of 31.4%. Revenue declined 5.2% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 9.7%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $31.1M. Fundamentals as of Jul 26, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $16.98 (bear case) to $28.31 (bull case); at $18.63, 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 32% 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 22%, FRBA 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 ($22.64) versus Dividend Discount ($3.05). Highest evidence: Residual Income (76).

A separate quality layer scores the fundamentals. Every input is real reported data, nothing guessed.
