What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($17.19). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
  • Solid but not exceptional quality (62/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
  • For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

Analysis

CVB Financial Corporation (CVBF) currently trades at $22.48, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $13.76, implying the stock looks roughly 63.4% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 62/100 (solid quality), in the Financial Services sector. Bull case: the Multiples group reads highest at a median of $15.42 per share, and 0 of the 6 models we run sit above the $22.48 price. Bear case: the Dividend Discount group reads lowest at $8.55, and 6 of the 6 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.

Over the trailing twelve months, CVB Financial Corporation generated revenue of $519M at a net margin of 40.3%. Revenue grew 0.3% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 9.2%. Net debt stands at $883M. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $10.32 (bear case) to $17.19 (bull case); at $22.48, the current price sits above 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 near its 52-week high and 30% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at −10% fair-value upside, at −39%, CVBF screens richer 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 $0.4940 per share, which is 3.6 % 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

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.
