What matters now
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($21.56). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- Weak quality (44/100) and above fair value at the same time, the margin of safety is missing on both counts.
- For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

Analysis
Old Second Bancorp, Inc (OSBC) currently trades at $25.44, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $17.26, implying the stock looks roughly 32.2% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 44/100 (below-average 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, Old Second Bancorp, Inc generated revenue of $325M at a net margin of 26.5%. Revenue grew 19.2% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 10.8%. Net debt stands at $215M. Fundamentals as of Jul 27, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $12.94 (bear case) to $21.56 (bull case); at $25.44, 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 near its 52-week high and 57% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at 42% fair-value upside, at -32%, OSBC 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.
All 6 models by family
Widest divergence: Multiples ($20.30) versus Dividend Discount ($2.94). Highest evidence: Residual Income (76).
