Analysis

Novozymes A/S (NVZMY) currently trades at $65.94, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $55.02, implying the stock looks roughly 16.6% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 60/100 (solid quality), in the Basic Materials 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, Novozymes A/S generated revenue of $4.2B at a net margin of 14.2%. Revenue grew 3.9% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 5.4%. Net debt stands at $22.2B. Fundamentals as of Jul 17, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $46.86 (bear case) to $68.78 (bull case); at $65.94, 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. The share trades about 9% below its 52-week high and 34% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Basic Materials peers we cover trades at -67% fair-value upside, at -17%, NVZMY 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.
