Analysis
Kforce Inc (KFRC) currently trades at $59.09, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $31.93, implying the stock looks roughly 46.0% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 66/100 (solid quality), in the Industrials 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, Kforce Inc generated revenue of $1.3B at a net margin of 2.6%. Revenue grew 0.1% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 27.1%. Net debt stands at $80.8M. Fundamentals as of Jul 17, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $21.13 (bear case) to $44.77 (bull case); at $59.09, 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 near its 52-week high and 150% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at 23% fair-value upside, at -46%, KFRC 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.
