Analysis
NPK International Inc (NPKI) currently trades at $13.48, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $3.95, implying the stock looks roughly 70.7% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 73/100 (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, NPK International Inc generated revenue of $287M at a net margin of 13.7%. Revenue grew 15.9% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 10.5%. Net debt stands at $31.5M. Fundamentals as of Jul 19, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $3.36 (bear case) to $5.42 (bull case); at $13.48, 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 18% below its 52-week high and 65% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at -33% fair-value upside, at -71%, NPKI 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.
