How to read this chart
60‑month range $39.22 – $281.81 · fair‑value band $38.42 – $64.04 · the $80.10 price screens above the $51.23 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). Dashed = 300-day average. As of Sep 9, 2026.
Block, Inc (XYZ) currently trades at $80.10, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $51.23, implying the stock looks roughly 56.3% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 64/100 (solid quality), in the Technology sector. Bull case: the Growth DCF group reads highest at a median of $133.87 per share, and 16 of the 26 models we run sit above the $80.10 price. Bear case: the Asset-Based group reads lowest at $27.80, and 10 of the 26 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.
Over the trailing twelve months, Block, Inc generated revenue of $24.5B at a net margin of 3.3%. Revenue grew 4.9% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 3.7%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $2.4B. Fundamentals as of Sep 9, 2026
Scenario range: $38.42 (bear) to $64.04 (bull), the price of $80.10 sits above it. Bear and bull are the same models on cautious and optimistic assumptions, a 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 3% below its 52-week high and 66% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at −32% fair-value upside, at −36%, XYZ screens richer than that median.

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.
