What matters now

  • The price sits close to our fair value, market and models broadly agree here, little valuation tension.
  • The price sits in the upper half of our model range, so the margin of safety is thin.
  • Read the verdict with care: some models are missing inputs, so the estimate scatters more than usual.

Analysis

Southern California Gas Company PFD SER A 6% (SOCGP) currently trades at $31.10, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $29.62, implying the stock looks roughly 5.0% fairly valued today. The Quality Score stands at 46/100 (below-average quality), in the Other sector. Bull case: the Multiples group reads highest at a median of $198.79 per share, and 16 of the 16 models we run sit above the $31.10 price. Bear case: the Dividend Discount group reads lowest at $36.44, and 0 of the 16 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is medium.

Net debt stands at $9.0B. The stock trades on a trailing P/E of 6.5 (as of Jun 23, 2026). Fundamentals as of Aug 22, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $20.76 (bear case) to $37.02 (bull case); at $31.10, 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. The share trades near its 52-week high and 41% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Other peers we cover trades at 9% fair-value upside, at −5%, SOCGP screens richer than that median.

Fair Value models

Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted, family-balanced 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. Every input is real reported data, nothing guessed.

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

Non-valuation factor families (profitability, growth, cashflow, financial strength, momentum …), each academically grounded. Valuation itself sits in the Fair Value and is deliberately excluded here to avoid double-counting.

All values are scores from 0 to 100 (100 = best against fixed, research-based bands), not percentages. The three market factors (momentum, 52-week proximity, low volatility) are displayed but carry zero weight in the headline number: market sentiment is not a business property.
