What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (CHF 199.34). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
  • Solid but not exceptional quality (69/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
  • A fairly wide model range (CHF 98.43 to CHF 199.34) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis

Sonova Holding (SOON) currently trades at CHF 233.80, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is CHF 159.47, implying the stock looks roughly 31.8% overvalued today. We read business quality at 69/100 (solid quality), in the Healthcare 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, Sonova Holding generated revenue of CHF 3.6B at a net margin of 11.9%. Revenue declined 1.0% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 20.5%. Net debt stands at CHF 990M. Fundamentals as of Jul 18, 2026

Our scenario range runs from CHF 98.43 (bear case) to CHF 199.34 (bull case); at CHF 233.80, 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 9% below its 52-week high and 43% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Healthcare peers we cover trades at -22% fair-value upside, at -32%, SOON 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.
