Fair value as of: Jul 11, 2026
From 24 valuation models · updated 27 days ago
Share price +3.5% over the past month.
A solid business, but screening 39% overvalued on our models.
What matters now
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (CHF 730.35). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- Solid but not exceptional quality (65/100) 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.

Analysis
Swiss Life Holding (SLHN) currently trades at CHF 954.60, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is CHF 584.28, implying the stock looks roughly 38.8% overvalued today. We read business quality at 65/100 (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, Swiss Life Holding generated revenue of CHF 11.7B at a net margin of 10.5%. Revenue grew 1.1% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 16.6%. Net debt stands at CHF 9.0B. Fundamentals as of Jul 11, 2026
Our scenario range runs from CHF 438.21 (bear case) to CHF 730.35 (bull case); at CHF 954.60, 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 near its 52-week high and 26% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at -12% fair-value upside, at -39%, SLHN 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 DCF (CHF 1,081) versus Asset-Based (CHF 169.31). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
