A solid business, but screening 69% overvalued on our models.

What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (CHF 70.94). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
  • Solid but not exceptional quality (66/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
  • A fairly wide model range (CHF 39.20 to CHF 70.94) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis

Galderma Group (GALD) currently trades at CHF 178.55, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is CHF 55.07, implying the stock looks roughly 69.2% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 66/100 (solid quality), in the Healthcare sector. Bear case: priced above our estimate, the market already discounts strong expectations. Bull case: above-average quality can justify a premium, the entry price still matters most (evidence: high).

Over the trailing twelve months, Galderma Group generated revenue of CHF 5.2B at a net margin of 11.7%. Revenue grew 24.8% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 7.7%. Net debt stands at CHF 2.0B. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026

Our scenario range runs from CHF 39.20 (bear case) to CHF 70.94 (bull case); at CHF 178.55, 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 last reported earnings sit well below what analysts expect (earnings in transition, for example after write-downs or an earnings dip); whether the stock is cheap or expensive hinges on the expected recovery actually arriving. Read the fair value with that caveat. The share trades near its 52-week high and 67% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Healthcare peers we cover trades at -49% fair-value upside, at -69%, GALD screens richer than that median.

Fair Value models

Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted 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.

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
