Analysis

Stora Enso Oyj (STEAV) currently trades at €9.86, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is €11.42, implying the stock looks roughly 15.8% undervalued today. We read business quality at 51/100 (solid quality), in the Consumer Cyclical sector. Bull case: trading below our estimate, it may offer upside if the fundamentals hold. Bear case: a low price can be a value trap when quality is weak or the data is thin (evidence: high), always confirm before acting.

Over the trailing twelve months, Stora Enso Oyj generated revenue of €9.3B at a net margin of 6.6%. Revenue declined 0.2% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 6.0%. Net debt stands at €3.3B. Fundamentals as of Jul 16, 2026

Our scenario range runs from €8.28 (bear case) to €12.25 (bull case); at €9.86, 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 about 18% below its 52-week high and 15% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Cyclical peers we cover trades at -11% fair-value upside, at 16%, STEAV screens cheaper 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.

Widest divergence: Multiples (€14.96) versus Dividend Discount (€2.53). Highest evidence: Residual Income (76).
