Analysis
Bureau Veritas SA (BVI) currently trades at €27.20, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is €27.81, implying the stock looks roughly 2.2% fairly valued today. The Quality Score stands at 68/100 (solid quality), in the Industrials sector. Bull case: the DCF Models group reads highest at a median of €26.85 per share, and 8 of the 26 models we run sit above the €27.20 price. Bear case: the Earnings-Based group reads lowest at €7.98, and 18 of the 26 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.
Over the trailing twelve months, Bureau Veritas SA generated revenue of €6.7B at a net margin of 8.8%. Revenue grew 1.8% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 32.2%. Net debt stands at €2.1B. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026
Our scenario range runs from €17.12 (bear case) to €34.76 (bull case); at €27.20, 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 5% below its 52-week high and 15% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at −21% fair-value upside, at 2%, BVI 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 €0.2639 per share, which is 0.9 % 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 26 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models (€26.85) versus Asset-Based (€2.58). Highest evidence: FCF DCF (79).

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