What matters now
- The large discount to fair value meets weak quality (27/100). That raises the risk this is a value trap rather than a bargain.
- The price is below even our cautious bear case ($106.56). The market is more pessimistic than our downside scenario.
- A fairly wide model range ($106.56 to $202.94) leaves room in how you read the outcome.
Price vs Fair Value (5 years)
White line = price, green steps = our fair value per fiscal year, dashed = 300-day average. As of Aug 13, 2026.
How to read this chart
60‑month range $6.83 – $89.81 · fair‑value band $106.56 – $202.94 · the $74.18 price screens below the $154.75 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). 5 fiscal years are left out: there the valuation rested on only a fraction of the usual models. Dashed = 300-day average. As of Aug 13, 2026.

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 31 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 65
Non-valuation factor families (profitability, growth, cashflow, financial strength, momentum …), each academically grounded. Valuation itself sits in the Fair Value and is deliberately excluded here to avoid double-counting.
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.
