Share price −1.5% over the past month.

A solid business, but screening 41% overvalued on our models.

What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($3.79). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
  • Solid but not exceptional quality (64/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
  • As a real-estate business, asset- and dividend-based methods carry more weight here than a standard DCF.

Analysis

Global Self Storage, Inc (SELF) currently trades at $5.15, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $3.03, implying the stock looks roughly 41.2% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 64/100 (solid quality), in the Real Estate 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, Global Self Storage, Inc generated revenue of $12.8M at a net margin of 15.4%. Revenue grew 1.5% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 4.2%. Net debt stands at $8.5M. Fundamentals as of Jul 27, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $2.92 (bear case) to $3.79 (bull case); at $5.15, 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 about 7% below its 52-week high and 14% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Real Estate peers we cover trades at -50% fair-value upside, at -41%, SELF screens cheaper 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.

Model Bear Bear = the cautious scenario: the same model computed with conservative anchors (lower growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bull it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target.BaseBull Bull = the optimistic scenario: the same model computed with favourable anchors (higher growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bear it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target. Evidence
