What matters now
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($92.92). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- Solid but not exceptional quality (62/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
- For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

How to read this chart
60‑month range $46.09 – $129.55 · fair‑value band $55.75 – $92.92 · the $117.24 price screens above the $74.34 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). Dashed = 300-day average. As of Aug 30, 2026.
Analysis
Aflac Incorporated (AFL) currently trades at $117.24, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $74.34, implying the stock looks roughly 57.7% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 62/100 (solid quality), in the Financial Services sector. Bull case: the Multiples group reads highest at a median of $81.11 per share, and 0 of the 6 models we run sit above the $117.24 price. Bear case: the Dividend Discount group reads lowest at $30.20, and 6 of the 6 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.
Over the trailing twelve months, Aflac Incorporated generated revenue of $18.1B at a net margin of 25.6%. Revenue grew 27.9% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 16.5%. Net debt stands at $2.2B. Fundamentals as of Aug 30, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $55.75 (bear case) to $92.92 (bull case); at $117.24, 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 2% below its 52-week high and 24% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at −29% fair-value upside, at −37%, AFL screens richer 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 $4.33 per share, which is 5.8 % 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.
All 6 models by family
Widest divergence: Multiples ($81.11) versus Dividend Discount ($30.20). Highest evidence: Residual Income (72).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 59 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 66
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.
