What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (€6.64). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
  • Solid but not exceptional quality (50/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
  • The models converge in a tight band (€5.90 to €6.64), unusually little disagreement for a valuation.

Price vs Fair Value (5 years)

€34.20 €11.74 Fair Value €6.31 Jul 2021 Sep 2026

White line = price, green steps = our fair value per fiscal year, dashed = 300-day average. As of Sep 1, 2026.

How to read this chart

60‑month range €11.74 – €34.20 · fair‑value band €5.90 – €6.64 · the €20.85 price screens above the €6.31 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. As of Sep 1, 2026.

Analysis

SFC Energy AG (F3C) currently trades at €20.85, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is €6.31, implying the stock looks roughly 230.5% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 50/100 (solid quality), in the Industrials sector. Bull case: the Multiples group reads highest at a median of €14.34 per share, and 0 of the 9 models we run sit above the €20.85 price. Bear case: the Dividend Discount group reads lowest at €2.49, and 9 of the 9 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is medium.

Over the trailing twelve months, SFC Energy AG generated revenue of €139M at a net margin of −0.8%. Revenue declined 11.7% year over year. It earns a return on equity of −1.0%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of €30.3M. Fundamentals as of Sep 1, 2026

Our scenario range runs from €5.90 (bear case) to €6.64 (bull case); at €20.85, 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 16% below its 52-week high and 84% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at −44% fair-value upside, at −70%, F3C screens richer than that median.

Fair Value models

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.
