What matters now
- A high-quality business (quality 76/100), yet the market already pays well above fair value. Quality at a full price, with little margin of safety.
- A fairly wide model range (€38.88 to €75.32) leaves room in how you read the outcome.
- For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

How to read this chart
60‑month range €16.94 – €76.45 · fair‑value band €38.88 – €75.32 · the €75.95 price screens above the €57.04 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
DWS Group GmbH & Co. KGaA (DWS) currently trades at €75.95, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is €57.04, implying the stock looks roughly 33.2% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 76/100 (high quality), in the Financial Services sector. Bull case: the DCF Models group reads highest at a median of €64.45 per share, and 2 of the 13 models we run sit above the €75.95 price. Bear case: the Earnings-Based group reads lowest at €24.94, and 11 of the 13 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.
Over the trailing twelve months, DWS Group GmbH & Co. KGaA generated revenue of €4.7B at a net margin of 21.3%. Revenue grew 8.9% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 12.4%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of €863M. Fundamentals as of Aug 30, 2026
Our scenario range runs from €38.88 (bear case) to €75.32 (bull case); at €75.95, 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 64% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at −28% fair-value upside, at −25%, DWS 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 €3.38 per share, which is 5.9 % 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 13 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models (€64.45) versus Earnings-Based (€24.94). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (79).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 71 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 84
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.
