What matters now

  • Solid quality (57/100) at a price below fair value, the discount is the argument here, not the business quality.
  • A fairly wide model range (1,380 CLP to 3,145 CLP) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis

Cencosud S.A (CENCOSUD) currently trades at 2,006 CLP, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is 2,425 CLP, implying the stock looks roughly 17.3% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 57/100 (solid quality), in the Consumer Cyclical sector. Bull case: the Multiples group reads highest at a median of 2,516 CLP per share, and 13 of the 24 models we run sit above the 2,006 CLP price. Bear case: the Earnings-Based group reads lowest at 579.75 CLP, and 11 of the 24 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.

Over the trailing twelve months, Cencosud S.A generated revenue of 16.6T CLP at a net margin of 1.7%. Revenue grew 0.2% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 6.9%. Net debt stands at 3.8T CLP. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026

Our scenario range runs from 1,380 CLP (bear case) to 3,145 CLP (bull case); at 2,006 CLP, 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 38% below its 52-week high, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Cyclical peers we cover trades at −15% fair-value upside, at 21%, CENCOSUD 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 52.73 CLP per share, which is 2.2 % 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.
