Analysis

Methanex Corporation (MEOH) currently trades at $53.27, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $26.88, implying the stock looks roughly 49.5% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 50/100 (solid quality), in the Basic Materials 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, Methanex Corporation generated revenue of $3.7B at a net margin of -1.2%. Revenue grew 8.6% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 0.6%. Net debt stands at $3.1B. Fundamentals as of Jul 18, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $20.16 (bear case) to $33.60 (bull case); at $53.27, 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 20% below its 52-week high and 68% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Basic Materials peers we cover trades at -46% fair-value upside, at -50%, MEOH 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.
