What matters now

  • Solid but not exceptional quality (55/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
  • A fairly wide model range (€20.19 to €52.29) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Price vs Fair Value (5 years)

€51.62 €18.61 Fair Value €36.87 Jul 2021 Sep 2026

White line = price, green steps = our fair value per fiscal year, dashed = 300-day average. As of Sep 1, 2026.

How to read this chart

60‑month range €18.61 – €51.62 · fair‑value band €20.19 – €52.29 · the €46.90 price screens above the €36.87 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). 3 fiscal years are left out: there the valuation rested on only a fraction of the usual models. Dashed = 300-day average. As of Sep 1, 2026.

Analysis

Accor S. A. (AC) currently trades at €46.90, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is €36.87, implying the stock looks roughly 27.2% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 55/100 (solid quality), in the Consumer Cyclical sector. Bull case: the Growth Earnings group reads highest at a median of €37.93 per share, and 4 of the 26 models we run sit above the €46.90 price. Bear case: the Asset-Based group reads lowest at €12.16, and 22 of the 26 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.

Over the trailing twelve months, Accor S. A. generated revenue of €5.6B at a net margin of 8.0%. Revenue declined 1.2% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 9.8%. Net debt stands at €3.1B. Fundamentals as of Sep 1, 2026

Our scenario range runs from €20.19 (bear case) to €52.29 (bull case); at €46.90, 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 7% below its 52-week high and 25% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Cyclical peers we cover trades at −61% fair-value upside, at −21%, AC screens cheaper than that median.

Fair Value models

This estimate rests on fiscal year 2025 figures, and about 8 months have passed since. In that time the company retained roughly €0.1767 per share, which is 0.5 % of the fair value. The fair value deliberately does not add this in: the models value reported figures, not a projection.

Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted, family-balanced 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. Every input is real reported data, nothing guessed.

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

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.
