What matters now
The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($4.15). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
Weak quality (38/100) and above fair value at the same time, the margin of safety is missing on both counts.
The large gap to fair value rests on thin data (low evidence): fewer applicable models and a shorter history. Read it with extra caution.
A fairly wide model range ($2.06 to $4.15) leaves room in how you read the outcome.
Price vs Fair Value (19 months)
White line = price, green steps = our fair value per fiscal year, dashed = 300-day average. As of Sep 6, 2026.
How to read this chart
19‑month range $26.77 – $115.29 · fair‑value band $2.06 – $4.15 · the $34.39 price screens above the $2.75 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). Dashed = 300-day average. As of Sep 6, 2026.
Karman Holdings Inc. (KRMN) currently trades at $34.39, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $2.75, implying the stock looks roughly 1,150.0% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 38/100 (below-average quality), in the Industrials sector. Bull case: the DCF Models group reads highest at a median of $6.39 per share, and 0 of the 17 models we run sit above the $34.39 price. Bear case: the Economic Profit group reads lowest at $1.11, and 17 of the 17 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is low.
Over the trailing twelve months, Karman Holdings Inc. generated revenue of $523M at a net margin of 5.7%. Revenue grew 51.0% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 7.9%. Net debt stands at $553M. Fundamentals as of Sep 6, 2026
Scenario range: $2.06 (bear) to $4.15 (bull), the price of $34.39 sits above it. Bear and bull are the same models on cautious and optimistic assumptions, a 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 71% below its 52-week high, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at −40% fair-value upside, at −92%, KRMN screens richer than that median.
Fair Value models
Based on fiscal year 2025 figures (about 8 months old). Earnings retained since then ($0.1601 per share) are deliberately not added.
Each model values the company its own way; the fair value above is the evidence-weighted blend. Evidence (0 to 100) shows how complete a model's inputs are. How we calculate →
Note: the current price implies far more future growth than the conservative anchors of our models allow (base growth is deliberately capped, we do not regard such extreme rates as sustainable). Our models are not designed for expectations this high; that is why the individual models scatter extremely ($0.0200 to $7.87). Read the values as a conservative anchor, not as a price target.
ModelBear ⓘBear = the cautious scenario: the same model computed with conservative anchors (lower growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bull it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target.BaseBull ⓘBull = the optimistic scenario: the same model computed with favourable anchors (higher growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bear it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target.Evidence

Non-valuation factor families (profitability, growth, cashflow, financial strength, momentum …), each academically grounded. Valuation itself sits in the Fair Value and is deliberately excluded here to avoid double-counting.
All values are scores from 0 to 100 (100 = best against fixed, research-based bands), not percentages. The three market factors (momentum, 52-week proximity, low volatility) are displayed but carry zero weight in the headline number: market sentiment is not a business property.
