Price vs Fair Value (5 years)
White line = price, green steps = our fair value per fiscal year, dashed = 300-day average. As of Aug 13, 2026.
How to read this chart
60‑month range $19.48 – $54.63 · fair‑value band $37.05 – $82.08 · the $46.34 price screens below the $47.78 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). 2 fiscal years are left out: there the valuation rested on only a fraction of the usual models. Dashed = 300-day average. As of Aug 13, 2026.
Analysis
Huazhu Group Ltd (HTHT) currently trades at $46.34, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $47.78, implying the stock looks roughly 3.0% fairly valued today. The Quality Score stands at 71/100 (solid quality), in the Consumer Cyclical sector. Bull case: the Growth Earnings group reads highest at a median of $425.76 per share, and 23 of the 24 models we run sit above the $46.34 price. Bear case: the Asset-Based group reads lowest at $27.91, and 1 of the 24 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is medium.
Over the trailing twelve months, Huazhu Group Ltd generated revenue of $25.9B at a net margin of 19.3%. Revenue grew 11.1% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 46.4%. Net debt stands at $25.6B. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $37.05 (bear case) to $82.08 (bull case); at $46.34, 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 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 16% below its 52-week high and 60% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Cyclical peers we cover trades at −61% fair-value upside, at 3%, HTHT screens cheaper than that median.
Fair Value models
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 ($549.63) versus Asset-Based ($27.91). Highest evidence: FCF DCF (75).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 67 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 63
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.
