What matters now
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (€5,216). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- The model range is unusually wide (€1,943 to €5,216). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.
- Solid but not exceptional quality (66/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.

Analysis
Lotus Bakeries NV (LOTB) currently trades at €11,440, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is €3,735, implying the stock looks roughly 67.4% overvalued today. We read business quality at 66/100 (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, Lotus Bakeries NV generated revenue of €1.4B at a net margin of 12.7%. Revenue grew 10.3% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 20.9%. Net debt stands at €190M. Fundamentals as of Aug 6, 2026
Our scenario range runs from €1,943 (bear case) to €5,216 (bull case); at €11,440, 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 about 4% below its 52-week high and 59% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Defensive peers we cover trades at -3% fair-value upside, at -67%, LOTB 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 26 models by family
Widest divergence: Growth Earnings (€3,749) versus Asset-Based (€708.55). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
