What matters now
- A high-quality business (quality 80/100), yet the market already pays well above fair value. Quality at a full price, with little margin of safety.
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($92.19). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- The model range is unusually wide ($34.23 to $92.19). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.

Analysis
Fortinet, Inc (FTNT) currently trades at $160.11, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $44.96, implying the stock looks roughly 71.9% overvalued today. We read business quality at 80/100 (high quality), in the Technology 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, Fortinet, Inc generated revenue of $7.1B at a net margin of 27.5%. Revenue grew 20.1% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 132.4%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $1.5B. Fundamentals as of Jul 16, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $34.23 (bear case) to $92.19 (bull case); at $160.11, 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 128% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at -53% fair-value upside, at -72%, FTNT 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 26 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models ($81.44) versus Asset-Based ($1.13). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
