Reading International, Inc (RDI) Fair Value & Analysis

Communication Services · US · Market cap $43.7M

Below-average quality, and screening another 58% overvalued on our models.

What matters now

• Weak quality (43/100) and above fair value at the same time, the margin of safety is missing on both counts.
• The model range is unusually wide ($0.1280 to $2.56). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.
• The large gap to fair value rests on thin data (low evidence): fewer applicable models and a shorter history. Read it with extra caution.

Analysis

Reading International, Inc (RDI) currently trades at $1.51, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $0.6400, implying the stock looks roughly 57.6% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 43/100 (below-average quality), in the Communication Services 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: low).

Over the trailing twelve months, Reading International, Inc generated revenue of $208M at a net margin of -8.4%. Revenue grew 12.3% year over year. Net debt stands at $350M. Fundamentals as of Jul 21, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $0.1280 (bear case) to $2.56 (bull case); at $1.51, 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 8% below its 52-week high and 61% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Communication Services peers we cover trades at -52% fair-value upside, at -58%, RDI 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.

Widest divergence: Multiples ($11.05) versus Dividend Discount ($0.0200). Highest evidence: Gordon GGM (70).
