Analysis

HP Inc (HPQ) currently trades at $28.18, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $42.25, implying the stock looks roughly 49.9% undervalued today. We read business quality at 61/100 (solid quality), in the Technology 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, HP Inc generated revenue of $57.4B at a net margin of 4.5%. Revenue grew 9.0% year over year. Net debt stands at $7.2B. The stock trades on a trailing P/E of 9.6. Fundamentals as of Jul 14, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $27.31 (bear case) to $61.59 (bull case); at $28.18, 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 about 5% below its 52-week high and 63% 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 50%, HPQ 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.
