Analysis
LPKF Laser & Electronics SE (LPK) currently trades at €15.05, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is €2.43, implying the stock looks roughly 83.9% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 58/100 (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: medium).
Over the trailing twelve months, LPKF Laser & Electronics SE generated revenue of €115M at a net margin of -15.2%. Revenue declined 31.4% year over year. It earns a return on equity of -22.0%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of €4.7M. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026
Our scenario range runs from €1.87 (bear case) to €3.00 (bull case); at €15.05, 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 50% below its 52-week high and 181% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at -46% fair-value upside, at -84%, LPK 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 10 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models (€7.66) versus Asset-Based (€2.14). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
