Analysis

Compagnie de Chemins de Fer Départementaux Société Anonyme (MLCFD) currently trades at €1,050, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is €636.69, implying the stock looks roughly 39.4% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 65/100 (solid quality), in the Industrials 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, Compagnie de Chemins de Fer Départementaux Société Anonyme generated revenue of €867K at a net margin of 65.3%. It earns a return on equity of 2.8%. Net debt stands at €12.7M. The stock trades on a trailing P/E of 20.3. Fundamentals as of Jul 13, 2026

Our scenario range runs from €482.13 (bear case) to €803.55 (bull case); at €1,050, 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 35% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at -28% fair-value upside, at -39%, MLCFD 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.

Model Bear Bear = the cautious scenario: the same model computed with conservative anchors (lower growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bull it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target.BaseBull Bull = the optimistic scenario: the same model computed with favourable anchors (higher growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bear it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target. Evidence
