Share price −1.3% over the past month.

A solid business, but screening 23% overvalued on our models.

What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($181.98). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
  • Solid but not exceptional quality (66/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
  • A fairly wide model range ($96.83 to $181.98) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis

Verisk Analytics, Inc (VRSK) currently trades at $189.75, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $145.58, implying the stock looks roughly 23.3% overvalued today. We read business quality at 66/100 (solid quality), in the Industrials 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, Verisk Analytics, Inc generated revenue of $3.1B at a net margin of 29.3%. Revenue grew 3.9% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 43.8%. Net debt stands at $2.9B. Fundamentals as of Jul 17, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $96.83 (bear case) to $181.98 (bull case); at $189.75, 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 40% below its 52-week high and 22% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at -4% fair-value upside, at -23%, VRSK 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.
