What matters now

  • Weak quality (40/100) and above fair value at the same time, the margin of safety is missing on both counts.
  • The price sits above our optimistic bull case: the favourable scenario is already priced in.
  • The data supports the verdict: every model runs on fully documented inputs.

Price vs Fair Value (5 years)

$79.24 $46.21 Fair Value $56.50 Jun 2021 Sep 2026

White line = price, green steps = our fair value per fiscal year, dashed = 300-day average. As of Aug 30, 2026.

How to read this chart

60‑month range $46.21 – $79.24 · fair‑value band $42.38 – $71.31 · the $71.47 price screens above the $56.50 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). 1 fiscal year is left out: there the valuation rested on only a fraction of the usual models. Dashed = 300-day average.

Analysis

Eversource Energy (ES) currently trades at $71.47, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $56.50, implying the stock looks roughly 26.5% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 40/100 (below-average quality), in the Utilities sector. Bull case: the Growth Earnings group reads highest at a median of $67.56 per share, and 4 of the 20 models we run sit above the $71.47 price. Bear case: the Economic Profit group reads lowest at $7.63, and 16 of the 20 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.

Over the trailing twelve months, Eversource Energy generated revenue of $13.9B at a net margin of 12.6%. Revenue grew 9.4% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 10.9%. Net debt stands at $30.1B. Fundamentals as of Aug 30, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $42.38 (bear case) to $71.31 (bull case); at $71.47, 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 about 4% below its 52-week high and 21% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Utilities peers we cover trades at −37% fair-value upside, at −21%, ES 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 $1.10 per share, which is 2.0 % 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

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.
