Analysis
Knight-Swift Transportation Holdings (KNX) currently trades at $69.28, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $17.16, implying the stock looks roughly 75.2% overvalued today. We read business quality at 59/100 (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, Knight-Swift Transportation Holdings generated revenue of $7.5B at a net margin of 0.5%. Revenue grew 1.4% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 0.5%. Net debt stands at $2.6B. Fundamentals as of Jul 12, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $12.02 (bear case) to $22.32 (bull case); at $69.28, 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 last reported earnings sit well below what analysts expect (earnings in transition, for example after write-downs or an earnings dip); whether the stock is cheap or expensive hinges on the expected recovery actually arriving. Read the fair value with that caveat. The share trades about 12% below its 52-week high and 81% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at -69% fair-value upside, at -75%, KNX 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 26 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models ($49.05) versus Earnings-Based ($5.83). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
