What matters now
- A high-quality business (quality 70/100), 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 ($19.11). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

Analysis
Goosehead Insurance, Inc (GSHD) currently trades at $65.20, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $15.28, implying the stock looks roughly 76.6% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 70/100 (solid quality), in the Financial Services 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, Goosehead Insurance, Inc generated revenue of $382M at a net margin of 8.0%. Revenue grew 23.3% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 175.8%. Net debt stands at $318M. Fundamentals as of Jul 26, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $11.46 (bear case) to $19.11 (bull case); at $65.20, 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 39% below its 52-week high and 94% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at -38% fair-value upside, at -77%, GSHD 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 3 models by family
Widest divergence: Dividend Discount ($78.76) versus Multiples ($15.28). Highest evidence: Gordon GGM (70).
