Analysis
Magnolia Oil & Gas Corporation (MGY) currently trades at $25.08, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $22.92, implying the stock looks roughly 8.6% fairly valued today. The Quality Score stands at 66/100 (solid quality), in the Energy 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, Magnolia Oil & Gas Corporation generated revenue of $1.3B at a net margin of 24.4%. Revenue grew 2.3% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 16.5%. Net debt stands at $153M. Fundamentals as of Jul 18, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $16.98 (bear case) to $35.46 (bull case); at $25.08, 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 23% below its 52-week high and 20% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Energy peers we cover trades at -26% fair-value upside, at -9%, MGY 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 26 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models ($33.69) versus Asset-Based ($7.03). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
