A solid business, but screening 22% overvalued on our models.

What matters now

  • The model range is unusually wide (€1.91 to €5.41). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.
  • Solid but not exceptional quality (52/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.

Analysis

Uniphar plc (UPR) currently trades at €4.74, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is €3.71, implying the stock looks roughly 21.7% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 52/100 (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, Uniphar plc generated revenue of €3.1B at a net margin of 1.7%. Revenue grew 13.3% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 12.7%. Net debt stands at €171M. Fundamentals as of Jul 21, 2026

Our scenario range runs from €1.91 (bear case) to €5.41 (bull case); at €4.74, 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 5% below its 52-week high and 40% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Healthcare peers we cover trades at 2% fair-value upside, at -22%, UPR 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.
