What matters now
- The model range is unusually wide (R125.61 to R344.34). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.
- The price sits close to our fair value, market and models broadly agree here, little valuation tension.
- For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

How to read this chart

Analysis
JSE Limited (JSE) currently trades at R152.72, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is R167.48, implying the stock looks roughly 9.7% fairly valued today. The Quality Score stands at 63/100 (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, JSE Limited generated revenue of 3.4B ZAR at a net margin of 31.2%. Revenue grew 17.4% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 22.0%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of 3.0B ZAR. Fundamentals as of Jul 16, 2026
Our scenario range runs from R125.61 (bear case) to R344.34 (bull case); at R152.72, 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. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at -53% fair-value upside, at 10%, JSE 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 13 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models (R254.08) versus Asset-Based (R40.82). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).

A separate quality layer scores the fundamentals. Every input is real reported data, nothing guessed.
