Share price +2.3% over the past month.

A solid business, but screening 45% overvalued on our models.

What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($232.85). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
  • Solid but not exceptional quality (63/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
  • A fairly wide model range ($112.01 to $232.85) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis

Stryker Corporation (SYK) currently trades at $337.43, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $186.28, implying the stock looks roughly 44.8% overvalued today. We read business quality at 63/100 (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, Stryker Corporation generated revenue of $25.3B at a net margin of 13.2%. Revenue grew 2.6% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 15.2%. Net debt stands at $10.8B. Fundamentals as of Jul 16, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $112.01 (bear case) to $232.85 (bull case); at $337.43, 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 16% below its 52-week high and 20% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Healthcare peers we cover trades at -22% fair-value upside, at -45%, SYK 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.

A separate quality layer scores the fundamentals. Every input is real reported data, nothing guessed.
