Price vs Fair Value (5 years)
White line = price, green steps = our fair value per fiscal year, dashed = 300-day average. As of Jul 18, 2026.
How to read this chart
60‑month range $48.21 – $186.02 · fair‑value band $145.81 – $243.01 · the $186.02 price screens below the $194.41 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). Dashed = 300-day average. As of Jul 18, 2026.
Analysis
Globe Life Inc (GL) currently trades at $186.02, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $194.41, implying the stock looks roughly 4.5% fairly valued today. We read business quality at 71/100 (solid 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, Globe Life Inc generated revenue of $6.1B at a net margin of 19.4%. Revenue grew 5.4% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 20.5%. Net debt stands at $2.5B. Fundamentals as of Jul 18, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $145.81 (bear case) to $243.01 (bull case); at $186.02, 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 60% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at 1% fair-value upside, at 5%, GL 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 25 models by family
Widest divergence: Growth Earnings ($243.63) versus Dividend Discount ($15.09). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
