A solid business, but screening 38% overvalued on our models.

What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (A$9.71). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
  • Solid but not exceptional quality (59/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
  • A fairly wide model range (A$4.88 to A$9.71) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis

Freightways Group (FRW) currently trades at A$12.02, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is A$7.48, implying the stock looks roughly 37.8% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 59/100 (solid quality), in the Industrials 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: medium).

Over the trailing twelve months, Freightways Group generated revenue of A$1.3B at a net margin of 6.5%. Revenue grew 8.5% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 16.9%. Net debt stands at A$215M. Fundamentals as of Jul 12, 2026

Our scenario range runs from A$4.88 (bear case) to A$9.71 (bull case); at A$12.02, 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 about 3% below its 52-week high and 25% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at -11% fair-value upside, at -38%, FRW 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.
