Analysis
Pentair plc (PNR) currently trades at $69.90, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $58.08, implying the stock looks roughly 16.9% overvalued today. We read business quality at 56/100 (solid 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: high).
Over the trailing twelve months, Pentair plc generated revenue of $4.2B at a net margin of 16.0%. Revenue grew 2.6% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 17.6%. Net debt stands at $1.5B. Fundamentals as of Jul 18, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $38.46 (bear case) to $85.97 (bull case); at $69.90, 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 38% below its 52-week high, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at -48% fair-value upside, at -17%, PNR 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.
All 25 models by family
