Analysis
Galderma Group (GALD) currently trades at CHF 178.25, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is CHF 54.75, implying the stock looks roughly 69.3% overvalued today. We read business quality at 70/100 (solid quality), in the Healthcare 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, Galderma Group generated revenue of CHF 5.2B at a net margin of 11.7%. Revenue grew 24.8% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 7.7%. Net debt stands at CHF 2.0B. Fundamentals as of Jul 16, 2026
Our scenario range runs from CHF 41.06 (bear case) to CHF 68.44 (bull case); at CHF 178.25, 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 last reported earnings sit well below what analysts expect (earnings in transition, for example after write-downs or an earnings dip); whether the stock is cheap or expensive hinges on the expected recovery actually arriving. Read the fair value with that caveat. The share trades near its 52-week high and 66% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Healthcare peers we cover trades at -49% fair-value upside, at -69%, GALD 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 (CHF 81.74) versus Dividend Discount (CHF 2.81). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
