Fair value as of: Jul 27, 2026
From 6 valuation models · updated 14 days ago
Share price +57.4% over the past month.
A solid business, but screening 40% overvalued on our models.
What matters now
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($36.10). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- Solid but not exceptional quality (51/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
- For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

Analysis
M&F Bancorp, Inc (MFBP) currently trades at $48.00, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $28.88, implying the stock looks roughly 39.8% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 51/100 (solid quality), in the Financial Services 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, M&F Bancorp, Inc generated revenue of $23.0M at a net margin of 18.3%. Revenue declined 1.5% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 3.2%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $1.4M. Fundamentals as of Jul 27, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $21.66 (bear case) to $36.10 (bull case); at $48.00, 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. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at 42% fair-value upside, at -40%, MFBP 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 6 models by family
