Analysis

Pegasystems Inc (PEGA) currently trades at $32.74, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $40.34, implying the stock looks roughly 23.2% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 75/100 (high quality), in the Technology 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, Pegasystems Inc generated revenue of $1.7B at a net margin of 20.0%. Revenue declined 9.6% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 51.7%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $136M. Fundamentals as of Jul 16, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $24.74 (bear case) to $58.66 (bull case); at $32.74, 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 last reported earnings sit well below what analysts expect (earnings in transition, for example after write-downs or an earnings dip); whether the stock is cheap or expensive hinges on the expected recovery actually arriving. Read the fair value with that caveat. The share trades about 52% below its 52-week high and 2% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at -27% fair-value upside, at 23%, PEGA 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.
