What matters now
- The price is below even our cautious bear case ($7.86). The market is more pessimistic than our downside scenario.
- Solid quality (60/100) at a price below fair value, the discount is the argument here, not the business quality.
- A fairly wide model range ($7.86 to $14.15) leaves room in how you read the outcome.
Price vs Fair Value (5 years)
White line = price, green steps = our fair value per fiscal year, dashed = 300-day average. As of Aug 27, 2026.
How to read this chart
60‑month range $4.48 – $17.48 · fair‑value band $7.86 – $14.15 · the $5.18 price screens below the $10.48 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). 1 fiscal year is left out: there the valuation rested on only a fraction of the usual models. Dashed = 300-day average. As of Aug 27, 2026.
Analysis
Melco Resorts & Entertainment Ltd (MLCO) currently trades at $5.18, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $10.48, implying the stock looks roughly 50.6% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 60/100 (solid quality), in the Consumer Cyclical sector. Bull case: the DCF Models group reads highest at a median of $15.29 per share, and 18 of the 20 models we run sit above the $5.18 price. Bear case: the Economic Profit group reads lowest at $4.35, and 2 of the 20 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is medium.
Over the trailing twelve months, Melco Resorts & Entertainment Ltd generated revenue of $5.3B at a net margin of 4.3%. Revenue grew 10.9% year over year. Net debt stands at $6.0B. The stock trades on a trailing P/E of 8.9. Fundamentals as of Aug 27, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $7.86 (bear case) to $14.15 (bull case); at $5.18, 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. The share trades about 49% below its 52-week high, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Cyclical peers we cover trades at 12% fair-value upside, at 102%, MLCO screens cheaper 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 $0.3925 per share, which is 3.7 % 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 22 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models ($15.29) versus Economic Profit ($4.35). Highest evidence: FCF DCF (69).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 56 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 30
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.
