Analysis
Transcat, Inc (TRNS) currently trades at $93.11, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $11.18, implying the stock looks roughly 88.0% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 42/100 (below-average 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, Transcat, Inc generated revenue of $332M at a net margin of 1.6%. Revenue grew 15.8% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 1.8%. Net debt stands at $124M. Fundamentals as of Jul 19, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $7.44 (bear case) to $15.11 (bull case); at $93.11, 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 2% below its 52-week high and 85% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at -35% fair-value upside, at -88%, TRNS 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: Asset-Based ($21.56) versus Economic Profit ($0.2000). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
