Analysis
Synopsys, Inc (SNPS) currently trades at $405.98, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $124.11, implying the stock looks roughly 69.4% overvalued today. We read business quality at 38/100 (below-average quality), in the Technology 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, Synopsys, Inc generated revenue of $8.7B at a net margin of 8.9%. Revenue grew 41.9% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 3.8%. Net debt stands at $11.4B. Fundamentals as of Jul 18, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $93.09 (bear case) to $155.14 (bull case); at $405.98, 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 last reported earnings sit well below what analysts expect (earnings in transition, for example after write-downs or an earnings dip); whether the stock is cheap or expensive hinges on the expected recovery actually arriving. Read the fair value with that caveat. The share trades about 38% below its 52-week high and 8% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at -53% fair-value upside, at -69%, SNPS 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 ($127.36) versus Dividend Discount ($23.24). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
