What matters now
- A fairly wide model range ($29.27 to $55.85) leaves room in how you read the outcome.
- The price sits in the lower half of our model range, the side with the larger margin of safety.
- Read the verdict with care: some models are missing inputs, so the estimate scatters more than usual.

How to read this chart
60‑month range $18.97 – $35.93 · fair‑value band $29.27 – $55.85 · the $35.70 price screens below the $42.56 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). Dashed = 300-day average. As of Aug 30, 2026.
Analysis
Dropbox Inc (DBX) currently trades at $35.70, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $42.56, implying the stock looks roughly 16.1% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 88/100 (high quality), in the Technology sector. Bull case: the DCF Models group reads highest at a median of $92.26 per share, and 17 of the 23 models we run sit above the $35.70 price. Bear case: the Earnings-Based group reads lowest at $28.57, and 6 of the 23 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is medium.
Over the trailing twelve months, Dropbox Inc generated revenue of $2.5B at a net margin of 18.7%. Revenue grew 0.8% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 16.8%. Net debt stands at $3.1B. Fundamentals as of Aug 30, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $29.27 (bear case) to $55.85 (bull case); at $35.70, 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 last reported earnings sit well below what analysts expect (earnings in transition, for example after write-downs or an earnings dip); whether the stock is cheap or expensive hinges on the expected recovery actually arriving. Read the fair value with that caveat. The share trades near its 52-week high and 65% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at −32% fair-value upside, at 19%, DBX 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 $1.24 per share, which is 2.9 % 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 23 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models ($92.26) versus Dividend Discount ($0.0100). Highest evidence: FCF DCF (78).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 85 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 75
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.
