Vera Therapeutics, Inc (VERA) Fair Value & Analysis
Healthcare · US · Market cap $3.0B
Fair value as of: Aug 13, 2026
From 1 valuation models · updated today
Share price −33.0% over the past month.
Below-average quality, and screening another 75% overvalued on our models.
What matters now
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($8.87). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- Weak quality (18/100) 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 ($4.68 to $8.87) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis
Vera Therapeutics, Inc (VERA) currently trades at $28.89, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $7.09, implying the stock looks roughly 75.5% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 18/100 (below-average 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: low).
It earns a return on equity of -71.3%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $277M. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $4.68 (bear case) to $8.87 (bull case); at $28.89, 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 48% below its 52-week high and 52% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Healthcare peers we cover trades at -47% fair-value upside, at -75%, VERA 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.
