What matters now

  • The model range is unusually wide ($108.63 to $291.91). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.
  • Solid quality (56/100) at a price below fair value, the discount is the argument here, not the business quality.

Analysis

M/I Homes Inc (MHO) currently trades at $147.48, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $177.41, implying the stock looks roughly 16.9% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 56/100 (solid quality), in the Consumer Cyclical sector. Bull case: the Growth Earnings group reads highest at a median of $271.32 per share, and 19 of the 26 models we run sit above the $147.48 price. Bear case: the Dividend Discount group reads lowest at $19.97, and 7 of the 26 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.

Over the trailing twelve months, M/I Homes Inc generated revenue of $4.4B at a net margin of 8.2%. Revenue declined 5.7% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 11.6%. Net debt stands at $397M. Fundamentals as of Sep 2, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $108.63 (bear case) to $291.91 (bull case); at $147.48, 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 7% below its 52-week high and 42% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Cyclical peers we cover trades at 45% fair-value upside, at 20%, MHO 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 $9.04 per share, which is 5.1 % 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.

Model Bear Bear = the cautious scenario: the same model computed with conservative anchors (lower growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bull it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target.BaseBull Bull = the optimistic scenario: the same model computed with favourable anchors (higher growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bear it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target. Evidence

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.
