Analysis
Brown-Forman Corporation (BF-B) currently trades at $28.03, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $27.69, implying the stock looks roughly 1.2% fairly valued today. The Quality Score stands at 72/100 (solid quality), in the Consumer Defensive sector. Bear case: priced above our estimate, the market already discounts strong expectations. Bull case: above-average quality can justify a premium, the entry price still matters most (evidence: high).
Over the trailing twelve months, Brown-Forman Corporation generated revenue of $3.9B at a net margin of 20.6%. Revenue grew 2.0% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 20.4%. Net debt stands at $1.8B. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $17.62 (bear case) to $37.87 (bull case); at $28.03, 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 11% below its 52-week high and 24% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Defensive peers we cover trades at 12% fair-value upside, at -1%, BF-B screens richer than that median.
Fair Value models
Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted 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.
All 23 models by family
Widest divergence: Multiples ($26.04) versus Asset-Based ($5.77). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
