Analysis
United Community Banks, Inc (UCB) currently trades at $35.70, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $35.62, implying the stock looks roughly 0.2% fairly valued today. We read business quality at 61/100 (solid quality), in the Financial Services 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, United Community Banks, Inc generated revenue of $1.0B at a net margin of 32.5%. Revenue grew 14.4% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 9.5%. Net debt stands at $2.8M. Fundamentals as of Jul 18, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $26.72 (bear case) to $44.53 (bull case); at $35.70, 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 2% below its 52-week high and 34% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at 42% fair-value upside, at 0%, UCB 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 ($60.79) versus Dividend Discount ($15.56). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
