What matters now
- Solid quality (67/100) at a price below fair value, the discount is the argument here, not the business quality.
- A fairly wide model range ($30.93 to $66.45) leaves room in how you read the outcome.
- For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

Analysis
Artisan Partners Asset Management Inc (APAM) currently trades at $41.15, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $50.62, implying the stock looks roughly 18.7% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 67/100 (solid quality), in the Financial Services sector. Bull case: the DCF Models group reads highest at a median of $54.59 per share, and 7 of the 13 models we run sit above the $41.15 price. Bear case: the Multiples group reads lowest at $8.65, and 6 of the 13 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.
Over the trailing twelve months, Artisan Partners Asset Management Inc generated revenue of $1.2B at a net margin of 23.5%. Revenue grew 9.3% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 72.5%. Net debt stands at $155M. Fundamentals as of Sep 5, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $30.93 (bear case) to $66.45 (bull case); at $41.15, 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 20% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at −28% fair-value upside, at 23%, APAM 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 $0.4077 per share, which is 0.8 % 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 13 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models ($54.59) versus Asset-Based ($4.14). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (78).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 64 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 47
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.
