Analysis
Golden Valley Bancshares, Inc (GVYB) currently trades at $26.99, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $27.35, implying the stock looks roughly 1.3% fairly valued today. The Quality Score stands at 57/100 (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, Golden Valley Bancshares, Inc generated revenue of $19.9M at a net margin of 25.6%. Revenue grew 24.9% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 12.4%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $17.3M. Fundamentals as of Jul 26, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $20.52 (bear case) to $34.19 (bull case); at $26.99, 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 42% fair-value upside, at 1%, GVYB 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 6 models by family
Widest divergence: Multiples ($27.35) versus Asset-Based ($13.16). Highest evidence: Residual Income (76).
