Fair value as of: Jul 17, 2026
From 15 valuation models · updated 21 days ago
Share price +1.1% over the past month.
A solid business, but screening 69% overvalued on our models.
What matters now
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (£0.5700). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- Solid but not exceptional quality (50/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
- For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

How to read this chart

Analysis
Santander UK plc (SANB) currently trades at £1.43, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is £0.4500, implying the stock looks roughly 68.5% overvalued today. We read business quality at 50/100 (solid quality), in the Financial 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: high).
Over the trailing twelve months, Santander UK plc generated revenue of £4.5B at a net margin of 23.9%. Revenue declined 2.6% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 7.5%. Net debt stands at £23.2B. Fundamentals as of Jul 17, 2026
Our scenario range runs from £0.3400 (bear case) to £0.5700 (bull case); at £1.43, 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. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at 42% fair-value upside, at -69%, SANB 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 15 models by family
Widest divergence: Growth Earnings (£0.5500) versus Earnings-Based (£0.0600). Highest evidence: Residual Income (76).
