What matters now

- For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

Analysis
Standard Bank Group (SBK) currently trades at R324.48, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is R410.25, implying the stock looks roughly 26.4% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 65/100 (solid quality), in the Financial Services sector. Bull case: trading below our estimate, it may offer upside if the fundamentals hold. Bear case: a low price can be a value trap when quality is weak or the data is thin (evidence: high), always confirm before acting.
Over the trailing twelve months, Standard Bank Group generated revenue of 180B ZAR at a net margin of 28.4%. Revenue grew 9.0% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 18.7%. Net debt stands at 148B ZAR. Fundamentals as of Jul 12, 2026
Our scenario range runs from R307.69 (bear case) to R512.82 (bull case); at R324.48, 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. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at 42% fair-value upside, at 26%, SBK 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 6 models by family
Widest divergence: Dividend Discount (R328.54) versus Asset-Based (R111.33). Highest evidence: Residual Income (76).

A separate quality layer scores the fundamentals. Every input is real reported data, nothing guessed.
