Analysis
Guardian Pharmacy Services, Inc. (GRDN) currently trades at $40.13, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $16.33, implying the stock looks roughly 145.8% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 65/100 (solid quality), in the Healthcare sector. Bull case: the DCF Models group reads highest at a median of $26.31 per share, and 0 of the 24 models we run sit above the $40.13 price. Bear case: the Asset-Based group reads lowest at $2.18, and 24 of the 24 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is medium.
Over the trailing twelve months, Guardian Pharmacy Services, Inc. generated revenue of $1.5B at a net margin of 3.7%. Revenue grew 2.2% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 26.9%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $28.5M. Fundamentals as of Aug 22, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $12.25 (bear case) to $21.85 (bull case); at $40.13, 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 about 9% below its 52-week high and 108% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Healthcare peers we cover trades at −7% fair-value upside, at −59%, GRDN 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 $0.5684 per share, which is 3.5 % 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 24 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models ($26.31) versus Asset-Based ($2.18). Highest evidence: FCF DCF (75).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 67 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 62
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.
