What matters now

  • A high-quality business (quality 70/100), yet the market already pays well above fair value. Quality at a full price, with little margin of safety.
  • The model range is unusually wide (€34.74 to €92.10). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.

Analysis

Kerry Group (KRZ) currently trades at €74.25, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is €59.98, implying the stock looks roughly 19.2% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 70/100 (solid quality), in the Consumer Defensive 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, Kerry Group generated revenue of €6.8B at a net margin of 9.7%. Revenue grew 1.3% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 10.6%. Net debt stands at €2.1B. Fundamentals as of Jul 17, 2026

Our scenario range runs from €34.74 (bear case) to €92.10 (bull case); at €74.25, 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 22% below its 52-week high and 15% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Defensive peers we cover trades at -3% fair-value upside, at -19%, KRZ 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.
