Fair value updated Aug 13, 2026, revised from £4.17 to £8.35 (+100.2%) since Jul 12, 2026. Share price +0.2% over the past month.

A solid business, but screening 16% overvalued on our models.

What matters now

  • Solid but not exceptional quality (69/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
  • For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

Analysis

Murray Income Trust (MUT) currently trades at £9.96, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is £8.35, implying the stock looks roughly 16.2% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 69/100 (solid quality), in the Financial Services 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, Murray Income Trust generated revenue of £126M at a net margin of 93.9%. Revenue declined 7.4% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 12.7%. Net debt stands at £102M. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026

Our scenario range runs from £6.26 (bear case) to £10.44 (bull case); at £9.96, 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. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at -33% fair-value upside, at -16%, MUT 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.

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
