Technology · US · Market cap $3.6M
Fair value as of: Aug 19, 2026
From 1 valuation models · updated today
Share price −6.9% over the past month.
A solid business, but screening 79% overvalued on our models.
What matters now
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($0.3700). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- The large gap to fair value rests on thin data (low evidence): fewer applicable models and a shorter history. Read it with extra caution.
- Solid but not exceptional quality (61/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
- A fairly wide model range ($0.1900 to $0.3700) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis
Microwave Filter Company Inc (MFCO) currently trades at $1.35, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $0.2900, implying the stock looks roughly 78.5% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 61/100 (solid quality), in the Technology 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: low).
Over the trailing twelve months, Microwave Filter Company Inc generated revenue of $2.2M at a net margin of -12.1%. Revenue grew 44.4% year over year. It earns a return on equity of -17.6%. Fundamentals as of Aug 19, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $0.1900 (bear case) to $0.3700 (bull case); at $1.35, 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 near its 52-week high and 322% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at -50% fair-value upside, at -79%, MFCO 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.
