Analysis
Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc (TMO) currently trades at $580.02, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $308.19, implying the stock looks roughly 46.9% overvalued today. We read business quality at 64/100 (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, Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc generated revenue of $45.2B at a net margin of 15.2%. Revenue grew 6.2% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 13.5%. Net debt stands at $31.0B. Fundamentals as of Jul 16, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $174.54 (bear case) to $385.23 (bull case); at $580.02, 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 10% below its 52-week high and 51% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Healthcare peers we cover trades at -49% fair-value upside, at -47%, TMO 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.
All 24 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models ($324.65) versus Asset-Based ($96.29). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
