Below-average quality, and screening another 92% overvalued on our models.

What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($5.72). 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.
  • A fairly wide model range ($3.01 to $5.72) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis

PolyPeptide Group (PLYGF) currently trades at $54.42, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $4.36, implying the stock looks roughly 92.0% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 44/100 (below-average quality), in the Healthcare 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, PolyPeptide Group generated revenue of $389M at a net margin of -5.4%. Revenue grew 10.2% year over year. It earns a return on equity of -6.1%. Net debt stands at $35.0M. Fundamentals as of Jul 18, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $3.01 (bear case) to $5.72 (bull case); at $54.42, 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 27% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Healthcare peers we cover trades at -49% fair-value upside, at -92%, PLYGF 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.
