Analysis
Robert Half Inc (RHI) currently trades at $42.74, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $22.10, implying the stock looks roughly 48.3% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 65/100 (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, Robert Half Inc generated revenue of $5.3B at a net margin of 2.4%. Revenue declined 3.8% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 10.2%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $43.2M. Fundamentals as of Jul 16, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $16.58 (bear case) to $27.63 (bull case); at $42.74, 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 100% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at 23% fair-value upside, at -48%, RHI 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.
All 26 models by family
Widest divergence: Dividend Discount ($34.35) versus Asset-Based ($8.36). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
