Hamilton Lane Incorporated
HLNE · US
Fair value as of: Aug 13, 2026
From 13 valuation models · updated yesterday
Share price +30.1% over the past month.
A solid business, but screening 41% overvalued on our models.
What matters now
- The model range is unusually wide ($47.26 to $128.97). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.
- Solid but not exceptional quality (63/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
- For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

How to read this chart
60‑month range $53.52 – $195.51 · fair‑value band $47.26 – $128.97 · the $107.19 price screens above the $63.01 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). Dashed = 300-day average. As of Aug 13, 2026.
Analysis
Hamilton Lane Incorporated (HLNE) currently trades at $107.19, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $63.01, implying the stock looks roughly 41.2% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 63/100 (solid quality), in the Financial Services 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: medium).
Over the trailing twelve months, Hamilton Lane Incorporated generated revenue of $759M at a net margin of 32.8%. Revenue declined 2.2% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 32.4%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $7.4M. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $47.26 (bear case) to $128.97 (bull case); at $107.19, the current price sits within 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 32% below its 52-week high and 42% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at -33% fair-value upside, at -41%, HLNE 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 13 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models ($141.20) versus Asset-Based ($14.03). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
