What matters now
- Solid quality (50/100) at a price below fair value, the discount is the argument here, not the business quality.
- A fairly wide model range (kr 33.06 to kr 68.92) leaves room in how you read the outcome.
Price vs Fair Value (5 years)
White line = price, green steps = our fair value per fiscal year, dashed = 300-day average. As of Aug 27, 2026.
How to read this chart
60‑month range kr 24.97 – kr 53.17 · fair‑value band kr 33.06 – kr 68.92 · the kr 39.06 price screens below the kr 50.99 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). 1 fiscal year is left out: there the valuation rested on only a fraction of the usual models. Dashed = 300-day average. As of Aug 27, 2026.
Analysis
Ratos AB (RATO-B) currently trades at kr 39.06, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is kr 50.99, implying the stock looks roughly 23.4% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 50/100 (solid quality), in the Industrials sector. Bull case: the Growth DCF group reads highest at a median of kr 68.23 per share, and 10 of the 11 models we run sit above the kr 39.06 price. Bear case: the Asset-Based group reads lowest at kr 27.24, and 1 of the 11 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is medium.
Over the trailing twelve months, Ratos AB generated revenue of 19.1B SEK at a net margin of 10.9%. Revenue grew 0.6% year over year. It earns a return on equity of −3.3%. Net debt stands at 6.8B SEK. Fundamentals as of Aug 27, 2026
Our scenario range runs from kr 33.06 (bear case) to kr 68.92 (bull case); at kr 39.06, 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 2% below its 52-week high and 30% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at −46% fair-value upside, at 31%, RATO-B screens cheaper than that median.
Fair Value models
Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted, family-balanced 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. Every input is real reported data, nothing guessed.
All 11 models by family
Widest divergence: Growth DCF (kr 68.23) versus Asset-Based (kr 27.24). Highest evidence: FCF DCF (79).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 48 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 62
Non-valuation factor families (profitability, growth, cashflow, financial strength, momentum …), each academically grounded. Valuation itself sits in the Fair Value and is deliberately excluded here to avoid double-counting.
All values are scores from 0 to 100 (100 = best against fixed, research-based bands), not percentages. The three market factors (momentum, 52-week proximity, low volatility) are displayed but carry zero weight in the headline number: market sentiment is not a business property.
