What matters now

  • Evidence is limited here (fewer models, shorter history), so the fair value is a rougher estimate than usual.
  • The price sits in the lower half of our model range, the side with the larger margin of safety.
  • Read the verdict with care: some models are missing inputs, so the estimate scatters more than usual.

Analysis

Venator Materials PLC (VNTRF) currently trades at $28.00, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $31.14, implying the stock looks roughly 10.1% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 38/100 (below-average quality), in the Basic Materials sector. Bull case: the Growth Earnings group reads highest at a median of $34.28 per share, and 3 of the 8 models we run sit above the $28.00 price. Bear case: the Asset-Based group reads lowest at $3.62, and 5 of the 8 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is low.

Over the trailing twelve months, Venator Materials PLC generated revenue of $1.6B at a net margin of 12.7%. Revenue declined 33.5% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 28.0%. Net debt stands at $141M. Fundamentals as of Aug 27, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $23.35 (bear case) to $38.92 (bull case); at $28.00, 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. For context, the median of 10 Basic Materials peers we cover trades at −58% fair-value upside, at 11%, VNTRF screens cheaper than that median.

Fair Value models

Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted, family-balanced 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. Every input is real reported data, nothing guessed.

Model Bear Bear = the cautious scenario: the same model computed with conservative anchors (lower growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bull it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target.BaseBull Bull = the optimistic scenario: the same model computed with favourable anchors (higher growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bear it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target. Evidence

All values are scores from 0 to 100 (100 = best against fixed, research-based bands), not percentages. The three market factors (momentum, 52-week proximity, low volatility) are displayed but carry zero weight in the headline number: market sentiment is not a business property.
