Analysis
Sterling Infrastructure, Inc (STRL) currently trades at $536.08, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $198.57, implying the stock looks roughly 63.0% overvalued today. We read business quality at 60/100 (solid quality), in the Industrials 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, Sterling Infrastructure, Inc generated revenue of $2.9B at a net margin of 12.0%. Revenue grew 91.6% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 36.7%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $40.8M. Fundamentals as of Jul 18, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $140.79 (bear case) to $282.01 (bull case); at $536.08, 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 47% below its 52-week high and 181% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at -45% fair-value upside, at -63%, STRL 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 26 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models ($270.40) versus Dividend Discount ($0.7100). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
