What matters now
The rarer combination: high quality (79/100) AND below fair value. That earns a closer look rather than a quick verdict.
The model range is unusually wide ($58.90 to $160.05). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.

Scenario range: $58.90 (bear) to $160.05 (bull), the price of $72.86 sits inside it. Bear and bull are the same models on cautious and optimistic assumptions, a range, not a price target. The share trades about 56% below its 52-week high and 1% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Healthcare peers we cover trades at −48% fair-value upside, at 44%, ZTS screens cheaper 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.
