Analysis
MGP Ingredients, Inc (MGPI) currently trades at $17.53, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $26.04, implying the stock looks roughly 48.6% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 49/100 (below-average quality), in the Consumer Defensive 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, MGP Ingredients, Inc generated revenue of $521M at a net margin of -46.0%. Revenue declined 12.5% year over year. It earns a return on equity of -34.1%. Net debt stands at $248M. Fundamentals as of Jul 24, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $14.74 (bear case) to $37.33 (bull case); at $17.53, 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 46% below its 52-week high and 12% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Defensive peers we cover trades at 6% fair-value upside, at 49%, MGPI 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.
