  • The model range is unusually wide (€4.41 to €12.88). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.

Analysis

ElringKlinger AG (ZIL2) currently trades at €5.23, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is €7.99, implying the stock looks roughly 52.8% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 46/100 (below-average quality), in the Consumer Cyclical sector. Bull case: trading below our estimate, it may offer upside if the fundamentals hold. Bear case: a low price can be a value trap when quality is weak or the data is thin (evidence: high), always confirm before acting.

Over the trailing twelve months, ElringKlinger AG generated revenue of €1.6B at a net margin of 0.3%. Revenue grew 1.6% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 0.2%. Net debt stands at €291M. Fundamentals as of Jul 15, 2026

Our scenario range runs from €4.41 (bear case) to €12.88 (bull case); at €5.23, 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 share trades about 15% below its 52-week high and 37% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Cyclical peers we cover trades at -44% fair-value upside, at 53%, ZIL2 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.

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
