Analysis
Himax Technologies, Inc (HIMX) currently trades at $14.61, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $5.04, implying the stock looks roughly 65.5% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 63/100 (solid 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, Himax Technologies, Inc generated revenue of $816M at a net margin of 3.9%. Revenue declined 7.5% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 3.7%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $229M. Fundamentals as of Jul 17, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $3.78 (bear case) to $6.30 (bull case); at $14.61, 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 42% below its 52-week high and 113% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at -67% fair-value upside, at -66%, HIMX 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 24 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models ($10.64) versus Earnings-Based ($2.72). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
