Usio, Inc (USIO) Fair Value & Analysis

Technology · US · Market cap $59.6M

Below-average quality, and screening another 65% overvalued on our models.

What matters now

• The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($1.17). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
• Weak quality (28/100) and above fair value at the same time, the margin of safety is missing on both counts.
• The large gap to fair value rests on thin data (low evidence): fewer applicable models and a shorter history. Read it with extra caution.
• A fairly wide model range ($0.6200 to $1.17) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis

Usio, Inc (USIO) currently trades at $2.32, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $0.8200, implying the stock looks roughly 64.7% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 28/100 (below-average quality), in the Technology 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: low).

Over the trailing twelve months, Usio, Inc generated revenue of $88.9M at a net margin of -2.4%. Revenue grew 15.7% year over year. It earns a return on equity of -11.6%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $3.5M. Fundamentals as of Jul 27, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $0.6200 (bear case) to $1.17 (bull case); at $2.32, 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 near its 52-week high and 125% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at -50% fair-value upside, at -65%, USIO 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.

Widest divergence: Growth DCF ($0.9100) versus Asset-Based ($0.4300). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).

Each company is valued through a stack of independent intrinsic-value models (DCF variants, residual-income, multiples and more), blended into one family-balanced consensus and weighted by how much trustworthy data backs it. A separate quality layer scores the fundamentals. Every input is real reported data, nothing guessed.
