Analysis
Sanford Limited (SARDY) currently trades at $19.40, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $18.07, implying the stock looks roughly 6.9% fairly valued today. The Quality Score stands at 68/100 (solid quality), in the Consumer Defensive 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, Sanford Limited generated revenue of $568M at a net margin of 12.7%. Revenue declined 5.5% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 9.7%. Net debt stands at $140M. Fundamentals as of Jul 18, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $13.55 (bear case) to $22.58 (bull case); at $19.40, 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 14% below its 52-week high and 42% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Defensive peers we cover trades at 102% fair-value upside, at -7%, SARDY 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 24 models by family
Widest divergence: Growth Earnings ($55.95) versus Dividend Discount ($3.06). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
