  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($20.23). The favourable scenario is already priced in.

Analysis

Loar Holdings (LOAR) currently trades at $70.87, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $16.18, implying the stock looks roughly 77.2% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 53/100 (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, Loar Holdings generated revenue of $538M at a net margin of 12.6%. Revenue grew 36.1% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 6.0%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $70.9M. Fundamentals as of Jul 19, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $11.58 (bear case) to $20.23 (bull case); at $70.87, 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 22% below its 52-week high and 33% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at -59% fair-value upside, at -77%, LOAR 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.
