Analysis

Meliá Hotels International, S.A (MEL) currently trades at €10.17, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is €15.84, implying the stock looks roughly 55.8% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 50/100 (solid quality), in the Consumer Cyclical 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: medium), always confirm before acting.

Over the trailing twelve months, Meliá Hotels International, S.A generated revenue of €2.1B at a net margin of 7.8%. Revenue grew 3.8% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 17.8%. Net debt stands at €2.2B. Fundamentals as of Jul 16, 2026

Our scenario range runs from €9.84 (bear case) to €21.23 (bull case); at €10.17, 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 16% below its 52-week high and 56% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Cyclical peers we cover trades at -62% fair-value upside, at 56%, MEL 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.
