What matters now
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($9.40). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- Weak quality (43/100) and above fair value at the same time, the margin of safety is missing on both counts.

Analysis
Lindblad Expeditions Holdings (LIND) currently trades at $33.95, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $6.27, implying the stock looks roughly 81.5% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 43/100 (below-average quality), in the Consumer Cyclical 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: medium).
Over the trailing twelve months, Lindblad Expeditions Holdings generated revenue of $799M at a net margin of -3.1%. Revenue grew 15.7% year over year. Net debt stands at $407M. Fundamentals as of Jul 17, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $3.15 (bear case) to $9.40 (bull case); at $33.95, 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 222% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Cyclical peers we cover trades at -16% fair-value upside, at -82%, LIND 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 14 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models ($13.65) versus Dividend Discount ($0.9000). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
