Analysis
Lagardere SA (MMB) currently trades at €18.84, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is €31.25, implying the stock looks roughly 65.9% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 58/100 (solid quality), in the Consumer Cyclical 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: high), always confirm before acting.
Over the trailing twelve months, Lagardere SA generated revenue of €9.4B at a net margin of 2.2%. Revenue grew 5.3% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 24.2%. Net debt stands at €4.5B. Fundamentals as of Jul 16, 2026
Our scenario range runs from €23.44 (bear case) to €39.07 (bull case); at €18.84, the current price sits below 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 12% below its 52-week high and 13% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Cyclical peers we cover trades at -24% fair-value upside, at 66%, MMB 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 25 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models (€65.06) versus Asset-Based (€4.16). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).

A separate quality layer scores the fundamentals. Every input is real reported data, nothing guessed.
