What matters now
- The price is below even our cautious bear case ($27.85). The market is more pessimistic than our downside scenario.
- Solid quality (64/100) at a price below fair value, the discount is the argument here, not the business quality.
- A fairly wide model range ($27.85 to $58.02) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis
Fresenius Medical Care Corporation (FMS) currently trades at $22.47, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $46.42, implying the stock looks roughly 51.6% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 64/100 (solid quality), in the Healthcare sector. Bull case: the Growth DCF group reads highest at a median of $40.71 per share, and 21 of the 26 models we run sit above the $22.47 price. Bear case: the Earnings-Based group reads lowest at $9.62, and 5 of the 26 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.
Over the trailing twelve months, Fresenius Medical Care Corporation generated revenue of $19.4B at a net margin of 4.9%. Revenue declined 5.5% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 7.9%. Net debt stands at $9.2B. Fundamentals as of Aug 19, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $27.85 (bear case) to $58.02 (bull case); at $22.47, the current price sits below 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 19% below its 52-week high and 17% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Healthcare peers we cover trades at −9% fair-value upside, at 107%, FMS 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 $0.2775 per share, which is 0.6 % 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 DCF ($40.71) versus Earnings-Based ($9.62). Highest evidence: FCF DCF (79).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 60 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 49
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.
