What matters now
- The price is below even our cautious bear case ($184.62). The market is more pessimistic than our downside scenario.
- The model range is unusually wide ($184.62 to $772.08). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.
- The large gap to fair value rests on thin data (low evidence): fewer applicable models and a shorter history. Read it with extra caution.
- Solid quality (47/100) at a price below fair value, the discount is the argument here, not the business quality.

Analysis
Charter Communications Inc (CHTR) currently trades at $151.38, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $454.14, implying the stock looks roughly 66.7% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 47/100 (below-average quality), in the Communication Services sector. Bull case: the Growth Earnings group reads highest at a median of $1,016 per share, and 22 of the 25 models we run sit above the $151.38 price. Bear case: the Asset-Based group reads lowest at $76.19, and 3 of the 25 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is low.
Over the trailing twelve months, Charter Communications Inc generated revenue of $54.6B at a net margin of 9.0%. Revenue declined 1.0% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 27.5%. Net debt stands at $96.6B. Fundamentals as of Sep 2, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $184.62 (bear case) to $772.08 (bull case); at $151.38, the current price sits below 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 64% below its 52-week high and 11% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Communication Services peers we cover trades at 30% fair-value upside, at 200%, CHTR 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 $25.01 per share, which is 5.5 % 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: Growth Earnings ($1,016) versus Dividend Discount ($2.51). Highest evidence: FCF DCF (77).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 45 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 27
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.
