Analysis
Garmin Ltd (GRMN) currently trades at $311.93, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $139.44, implying the stock looks roughly 55.3% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 74/100 (solid quality), in the Technology 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, Garmin Ltd generated revenue of $7.5B at a net margin of 23.3%. Revenue grew 14.2% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 19.9%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $2.1B. Fundamentals as of Aug 14, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $98.51 (bear case) to $197.89 (bull case); at $311.93, 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 near its 52-week high and 68% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at -46% fair-value upside, at -55%, GRMN 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.
All 26 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models ($160.28) versus Asset-Based ($31.17). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
