What matters now
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($206.21). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- The model range is unusually wide ($69.84 to $206.21). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.
- Solid but not exceptional quality (69/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.

Analysis
Marriott International, Inc (MAR) currently trades at $359.67, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $135.64, implying the stock looks roughly 62.3% overvalued today. We read business quality at 69/100 (solid 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: high).
Over the trailing twelve months, Marriott International, Inc generated revenue of $7.2B at a net margin of 36.0%. Revenue grew 12.6% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 14.5%. Net debt stands at $16.7B. Fundamentals as of Jul 16, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $69.84 (bear case) to $206.21 (bull case); at $359.67, 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 7% below its 52-week high and 43% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Cyclical peers we cover trades at -47% fair-value upside, at -62%, MAR 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 23 models by family
Widest divergence: Multiples ($178.18) versus Dividend Discount ($40.78). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
