Fair value as of: Aug 13, 2026
From 9 valuation models · updated yesterday
Fair value updated Aug 13, 2026, revised from £1.21 to £1.16 (−4.1%) since Jul 16, 2026. Share price −2.0% over the past month.
A solid business, screening 95% undervalued on our models.
What matters now
- The price is below even our cautious bear case (£0.8700). The market is more pessimistic than our downside scenario.
- Solid quality (52/100) at a price below fair value, the discount is the argument here, not the business quality.
- A fairly wide model range (£0.8700 to £1.93) leaves room in how you read the outcome.
- For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

How to read this chart
60‑month range £0.0952 – £0.7486 · fair‑value band £0.8700 – £1.93 · the £0.5940 price screens below the £1.16 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). Dashed = 300-day average. As of Aug 13, 2026.
Analysis
Old Mutual Limited (OMU) currently trades at £0.5940, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is £1.16, implying the stock looks roughly 95.3% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 52/100 (solid quality), in the Financial Services sector. Bull case: trading below our estimate, it may offer upside if the fundamentals hold. Bear case: a low price can be a value trap when quality is weak or the data is thin (evidence: high), always confirm before acting.
Over the trailing twelve months, Old Mutual Limited generated revenue of £118B at a net margin of 7.1%. Revenue grew 19.9% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 14.8%. Net debt stands at £12.0B. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026
Our scenario range runs from £0.8700 (bear case) to £1.93 (bull case); at £0.5940, the current price sits below 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 -27% fair-value upside, at 95%, OMU 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.
All 9 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models (£3.45) versus Asset-Based (£0.4277). Highest evidence: Residual Income (76).
