What matters now
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($18.15). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- Solid but not exceptional quality (64/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
- A fairly wide model range ($8.51 to $18.15) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis
Kenvue Inc. (KVUE) currently trades at $18.95, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $10.97, implying the stock looks roughly 72.7% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 64/100 (solid quality), in the Consumer Defensive sector. Bull case: the Multiples group reads highest at a median of $13.02 per share, and 2 of the 24 models we run sit above the $18.95 price. Bear case: the Asset-Based group reads lowest at $3.76, and 22 of the 24 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.
Over the trailing twelve months, Kenvue Inc. generated revenue of $15.3B at a net margin of 10.6%. Revenue grew 4.5% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 15.7%. Net debt stands at $7.5B. Fundamentals as of Sep 5, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $8.51 (bear case) to $18.15 (bull case); at $18.95, 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 about 13% below its 52-week high and 40% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Defensive peers we cover trades at −28% fair-value upside, at −42%, KVUE 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 $0.0149 per share, which is 0.1 % 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: Multiples ($13.02) versus Asset-Based ($3.76). Highest evidence: FCF DCF (78).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 60 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 57
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.
