What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($14.70). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
  • Weak quality (27/100) and above fair value at the same time, the margin of safety is missing on both counts.
  • A fairly wide model range ($7.92 to $14.70) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis

Northern Oil and Gas, Inc (NOG) currently trades at $21.60, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $13.35, implying the stock looks roughly 38.2% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 27/100 (below-average 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, Northern Oil and Gas, Inc generated revenue of $1.9B at a net margin of -32.4%. Revenue declined 7.1% year over year. It earns a return on equity of -29.8%. Net debt stands at $2.4B. Fundamentals as of Jul 20, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $7.92 (bear case) to $14.70 (bull case); at $21.60, 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 30% below its 52-week high and 11% 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 -38%, NOG 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.
