Analysis
Proficient Auto Logistics, Inc (PAL) currently trades at $7.34, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $5.98, implying the stock looks roughly 18.6% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 45/100 (below-average 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: medium).
Over the trailing twelve months, Proficient Auto Logistics, Inc generated revenue of $429M at a net margin of -9.2%. Revenue declined 1.6% year over year. It earns a return on equity of -12.3%. Net debt stands at $83.7M. Fundamentals as of Jul 25, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $3.84 (bear case) to $8.11 (bull case); at $7.34, 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 33% below its 52-week high and 51% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at -11% fair-value upside, at -19%, PAL 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 14 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models ($16.09) versus Earnings-Based ($2.82). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
