What matters now
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($7.85). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- Weak quality (35/100) and above fair value at the same time, the margin of safety is missing on both counts.
- The large gap to fair value rests on thin data (low evidence): fewer applicable models and a shorter history. Read it with extra caution.
- A fairly wide model range ($3.52 to $7.85) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis
Ouster, Inc. Common Stock (OUST) currently trades at $34.62, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $5.98, implying the stock looks roughly 82.7% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 35/100 (below-average quality), in the Technology 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: low).
Over the trailing twelve months, Ouster, Inc. Common Stock generated revenue of $185M at a net margin of -30.1%. Revenue grew 48.9% year over year. It earns a return on equity of -25.2%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $50.3M. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $3.52 (bear case) to $7.85 (bull case); at $34.62, 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 133% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at -63% fair-value upside, at -83%, OUST 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 3 models by family
Widest divergence: Dividend Discount ($8.78) versus Asset-Based ($2.61). Highest evidence: Gordon GGM (70).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 39 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 37
Non-valuation factor families (profitability, growth, cashflow, financial strength, momentum …), each academically grounded. Valuation itself sits in the Fair Value and is deliberately excluded here to avoid double-counting.
All values are scores from 0 to 100 (100 = best against fixed, research-based bands), not percentages. The three market factors (momentum, 52-week proximity, low volatility) are displayed but carry zero weight in the headline number: market sentiment is not a business property.
