Fair value as of: Jul 18, 2026

From 23 valuation models · updated 23 days ago

Share price −3.3% over the past month.

Below-average quality, and screening another 85% overvalued on our models.

What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($0.8585). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
  • Weak quality (31/100) and above fair value at the same time, the margin of safety is missing on both counts.
  • The model range is unusually wide ($0.2635 to $0.8585). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.

Analysis

MannKind Corporation (MNKD) currently trades at $4.11, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $0.6290, implying the stock looks roughly 84.7% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 31/100 (below-average quality), in the Healthcare 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, MannKind Corporation generated revenue of $361M at a net margin of -6.6%. Revenue grew 15.1% year over year. Net debt stands at $399M. Fundamentals as of Jul 18, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $0.2635 (bear case) to $0.8585 (bull case); at $4.11, 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 about 37% below its 52-week high and 84% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Healthcare peers we cover trades at -43% fair-value upside, at -85%, MNKD 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.
