Analysis
CDW Corporation (CDW) currently trades at $142.05, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $180.87, implying the stock looks roughly 27.3% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 58/100 (solid quality), in the Technology sector. Bull case: trading below our estimate, it may offer upside if the fundamentals hold. Bear case: a low price can be a value trap when quality is weak or the data is thin (evidence: high), always confirm before acting.
Over the trailing twelve months, CDW Corporation generated revenue of $22.9B at a net margin of 4.7%. Revenue grew 9.2% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 44.2%. Net debt stands at $5.7B. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $92.90 (bear case) to $292.21 (bull case); at $142.05, 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 21% below its 52-week high and 47% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at 0% fair-value upside, at 27%, CDW screens cheaper 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 26 models by family
Widest divergence: Growth Earnings ($163.49) versus Asset-Based ($13.67). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
