What matters now
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($5.22). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- The large gap to fair value rests on thin data (low evidence): fewer applicable models and a shorter history. Read it with extra caution.
- Solid but not exceptional quality (49/100) 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.

60‑month range $8.91 – $168.52 · fair‑value band $3.79 – $5.22 · the $74.30 price screens above the $5.22 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). Dashed = 300-day average. As of Sep 2, 2026.
Analysis
Affirm Holdings Inc (AFRM) currently trades at $74.30, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $5.22, implying the stock looks roughly 1,324.5% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 49/100 (below-average quality), in the Financial Services sector. Bull case: the Growth DCF group reads highest at a median of $16.59 per share, and 0 of the 18 models we run sit above the $74.30 price. Bear case: the Dividend Discount group reads lowest at $0.8600, and 18 of the 18 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is low.
Over the trailing twelve months, Affirm Holdings Inc generated revenue of $4.0B at a net margin of 9.6%. Revenue grew 32.6% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 11.5%. Net debt stands at $6.5B. Fundamentals as of Sep 2, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $3.79 (bear case) to $5.22 (bull case); at $74.30, 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 26% below its 52-week high and 77% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at −48% fair-value upside, at −93%, AFRM screens richer 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 $1.06 per share, which is 20.3 % 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 22 models by family
Widest divergence: Growth DCF ($16.59) versus Dividend Discount ($0.8600). Highest evidence: Residual Income (74).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 50 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 36
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.
