What matters now
- The price is below even our cautious bear case (£34.31). The market is more pessimistic than our downside scenario.
- Solid quality (67/100) at a price below fair value, the discount is the argument here, not the business quality.
- For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

Analysis
HarbourVest Global Private Equity Ltd (HVPE) currently trades at £33.40, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is £45.75, implying the stock looks roughly 27.0% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 67/100 (solid quality), in the Financial Services sector. Bull case: the Earnings-Based group reads highest at a median of £167.40 per share, and 6 of the 6 models we run sit above the £33.40 price. Bear case: the Asset-Based group reads lowest at £41.05, and 0 of the 6 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is medium.
Over the trailing twelve months, HarbourVest Global Private Equity Ltd generated revenue of £396M at a net margin of 84.1%. Revenue declined 4.1% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 8.0%. Net debt stands at £447M. Fundamentals as of Aug 27, 2026
Our scenario range runs from £34.31 (bear case) to £57.19 (bull case); at £33.40, the current price sits below 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. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at −28% fair-value upside, at 37%, HVPE screens cheaper than that median.
Fair Value models
This estimate rests on fiscal year 2026 figures, and about 7 months have passed since. In that time the company retained roughly £2.05 per share, which is 4.5 % 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 6 models by family
Widest divergence: Earnings-Based (£167.40) versus Asset-Based (£41.05). Highest evidence: Residual Income (68).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 62 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 71
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.
