Analysis
WEX Inc (WEX) currently trades at $185.22, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $149.57, implying the stock looks roughly 19.3% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 55/100 (solid 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: high).
Over the trailing twelve months, WEX Inc generated revenue of $2.7B at a net margin of 11.5%. Revenue grew 5.8% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 29.8%. Net debt stands at $4.0B. Fundamentals as of Jul 16, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $76.02 (bear case) to $232.89 (bull case); at $185.22, 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. The last reported earnings sit well below what analysts expect (earnings in transition, for example after write-downs or an earnings dip); whether the stock is cheap or expensive hinges on the expected recovery actually arriving. Read the fair value with that caveat. The share trades about 1% below its 52-week high and 40% 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 -19%, WEX screens cheaper 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.
All 24 models by family
Widest divergence: Growth Earnings ($179.15) versus Asset-Based ($23.86). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
