  • For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

Analysis

Associated Banc-Corp (ASB) currently trades at $30.91, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $30.59, implying the stock looks roughly 1.1% fairly valued today. The Quality Score stands at 52/100 (solid quality), in the Financial Services sector. Bull case: the Multiples group reads highest at a median of $32.67 per share, and 2 of the 6 models we run sit above the $30.91 price. Bear case: the Dividend Discount group reads lowest at $12.00, and 4 of the 6 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.

Over the trailing twelve months, Associated Banc-Corp generated revenue of $1.5B at a net margin of 33.4%. Revenue grew 12.2% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 10.2%. Net debt stands at $3.6B. Fundamentals as of Aug 28, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $22.94 (bear case) to $38.24 (bull case); at $30.91, 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 near its 52-week high and 43% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at −10% fair-value upside, at −1%, ASB 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 $1.32 per share, which is 4.3 % 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.

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.
