Analysis
Penguin Solutions, Inc (PENG) currently trades at $58.43, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $8.42, implying the stock looks roughly 85.6% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 62/100 (solid 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: high).
Over the trailing twelve months, Penguin Solutions, Inc generated revenue of $1.3B at a net margin of 4.1%. Revenue declined 6.2% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 9.6%. Net debt stands at $279M. Fundamentals as of Jul 19, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $6.32 (bear case) to $10.53 (bull case); at $58.43, 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 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 20% below its 52-week high and 264% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at -25% fair-value upside, at -86%, PENG 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 26 models by family
Widest divergence: Growth DCF ($23.30) versus Dividend Discount ($2.10). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
