What matters now

  • The rarer combination: high quality (71/100) AND below fair value. That earns a closer look rather than a quick verdict.
  • The price is below even our cautious bear case ($217.79). The market is more pessimistic than our downside scenario.
  • A fairly wide model range ($217.79 to $439.17) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis

Accenture plc (ACN) currently trades at $193.12, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $334.27, implying the stock looks roughly 42.2% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 71/100 (solid quality), in the Technology sector. Bull case: the DCF Models group reads highest at a median of $328.63 per share, and 18 of the 26 models we run sit above the $193.12 price. Bear case: the Asset-Based group reads lowest at $34.16, and 8 of the 26 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.

Over the trailing twelve months, Accenture plc generated revenue of $72.1B at a net margin of 10.6%. Revenue grew 8.3% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 24.8%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $3.3B. Fundamentals as of Aug 30, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $217.79 (bear case) to $439.17 (bull case); at $193.12, the current price sits below 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 38% below its 52-week high and 24% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at 57% fair-value upside, at 73%, ACN screens cheaper than that median.

Fair Value models

This estimate rests on fiscal year 2025 figures, and about 12 months have passed since. In that time the company retained roughly $6.00 per share, which is 1.8 % 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.
