Analysis

Lindsay Corporation (LNN) currently trades at $116.06, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $144.16, implying the stock looks roughly 24.2% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 71/100 (solid quality), in the Industrials sector. Bull case: trading below our estimate, it may offer upside if the fundamentals hold. Bear case: a low price can be a value trap when quality is weak or the data is thin (evidence: high), always confirm before acting.

Over the trailing twelve months, Lindsay Corporation generated revenue of $637M at a net margin of 9.3%. Revenue declined 15.7% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 11.5%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $114M. Fundamentals as of Jul 19, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $100.78 (bear case) to $181.39 (bull case); at $116.06, 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 20% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at 12% fair-value upside, at 24%, LNN screens cheaper 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.
