Share price −1.8% over the past month.

Below-average quality, and screening another 23% overvalued on our models.

What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (CHF 616.69). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
  • Weak quality (42/100) and above fair value at the same time, the margin of safety is missing on both counts.
  • For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

Analysis

St. Galler Kantonalbank AG (SGKN) currently trades at CHF 639.00, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is CHF 493.35, implying the stock looks roughly 22.8% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 42/100 (below-average 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, St. Galler Kantonalbank AG generated revenue of CHF 590M at a net margin of 38.5%. Revenue grew 5.1% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 7.4%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of CHF 394M. Fundamentals as of Jul 12, 2026

Our scenario range runs from CHF 370.01 (bear case) to CHF 616.69 (bull case); at CHF 639.00, 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 4% below its 52-week high and 41% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at 42% fair-value upside, at -23%, SGKN 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.
