Analysis

Agilent Technologies, Inc (A) currently trades at $149.29, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $61.53, implying the stock looks roughly 58.8% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 70/100 (solid quality), in the Healthcare 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, Agilent Technologies, Inc generated revenue of $7.2B at a net margin of 19.6%. Revenue grew 10.0% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 21.3%. Net debt stands at $1.6B. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $40.81 (bear case) to $102.54 (bull case); at $149.29, the current price sits above 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 6% below its 52-week high and 38% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Healthcare peers we cover trades at -50% fair-value upside, at -59%, A screens richer 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
