- A high-quality business (quality 82/100), yet the market already pays well above fair value. Quality at a full price, with little margin of safety.

Analysis
DexCom Inc (DXCM) currently trades at $89.71, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $38.95, implying the stock looks roughly 130.3% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 82/100 (high quality), in the Healthcare sector. Bull case: the Growth Earnings group reads highest at a median of $95.12 per share, and 3 of the 26 models we run sit above the $89.71 price. Bear case: the Asset-Based group reads lowest at $4.77, and 23 of the 26 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.
Over the trailing twelve months, DexCom Inc generated revenue of $4.8B at a net margin of 19.3%. Revenue grew 15.0% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 35.6%. Net debt stands at $472M. Fundamentals as of Sep 1, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $28.90 (bear case) to $48.99 (bull case); at $89.71, 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 66% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Healthcare peers we cover trades at −27% fair-value upside, at −57%, DXCM 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 $1.58 per share, which is 4.1 % 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 ($95.12) versus Asset-Based ($4.77). Highest evidence: FCF DCF (75).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 79 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 57
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.
