Analysis
RELX PLC (REN) currently trades at €30.60, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is €28.34, implying the stock looks roughly 8.0% fairly valued today. The Quality Score stands at 80/100 (high quality), in the Industrials sector. Bull case: the DCF Models group reads highest at a median of €23.06 per share, and 0 of the 26 models we run sit above the €30.60 price. Bear case: the Earnings-Based group reads lowest at €6.03, and 26 of the 26 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.
Over the trailing twelve months, RELX PLC generated revenue of €9.6B at a net margin of 21.5%. Revenue grew 1.2% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 70.5%. Net debt stands at €7.2B. Fundamentals as of Aug 19, 2026
Our scenario range runs from €17.80 (bear case) to €36.24 (bull case); at €30.60, 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 34% below its 52-week high and 35% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at −24% fair-value upside, at −7%, REN screens cheaper than that median.
Fair Value models
This estimate rests on fiscal year 2025 figures, and about 8 months have passed since. In that time the company retained roughly €0.4264 per share, which is 1.5 % of the fair value. The fair value deliberately does not add this in: the models value reported figures, not a projection.
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 26 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models (€23.06) versus Asset-Based (€0.9100). Highest evidence: FCF DCF (79).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 73 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 44
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.
