Analysis
Tesco PLC (TSCDY) currently trades at $19.35, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $24.04, implying the stock looks roughly 24.2% undervalued today. We read business quality at 67/100 (solid quality), in the Consumer Defensive 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, Tesco PLC generated revenue of $73.7B at a net margin of 2.4%. Revenue grew 7.2% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 15.5%. Net debt stands at $12.6B. Fundamentals as of Jul 21, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $17.35 (bear case) to $30.05 (bull case); at $19.35, 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 4% below its 52-week high and 22% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Defensive peers we cover trades at -31% fair-value upside, at 24%, TSCDY 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: Growth DCF ($19.72) versus Asset-Based ($3.68). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
