What matters now
- The model range is unusually wide (€50.25 to €150.42). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.
- For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

How to read this chart
60‑month range €58.39 – €100.79 · fair‑value band €50.25 – €150.42 · the €86.80 price screens below the €99.74 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). Dashed = 300-day average. As of Jul 13, 2026.
Analysis
Wendel (MF) currently trades at €86.80, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is €99.74, implying the stock looks roughly 14.9% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 38/100 (below-average quality), in the Financial Services 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, Wendel generated revenue of €7.8B at a net margin of -2.0%. Revenue grew 7.0% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 6.0%. Net debt stands at €3.4B. Fundamentals as of Jul 13, 2026
Our scenario range runs from €50.25 (bear case) to €150.42 (bull case); at €86.80, 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 3% below its 52-week high and 25% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at -12% fair-value upside, at 15%, MF 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.
All 6 models by family
Widest divergence: Growth DCF (€345.70) versus DCF Models (€57.45). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
