How to read this chart
60‑month range €2.02 – €3.91 · fair‑value band €2.22 – €4.05 · the €3.25 price screens above the €3.18 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). Dashed = 300-day average. As of Aug 21, 2026.
Analysis
The Navigator Company SA (NVG) currently trades at €3.25, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is €3.18, implying the stock looks roughly 2.4% fairly valued today. The Quality Score stands at 57/100 (solid quality), in the Basic Materials sector. Bull case: the Multiples group reads highest at a median of €3.46 per share, and 4 of the 24 models we run sit above the €3.25 price. Bear case: the Earnings-Based group reads lowest at €0.6200, and 20 of the 24 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.
Over the trailing twelve months, The Navigator Company SA generated revenue of €1.9B at a net margin of 6.1%. Revenue declined 19.4% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 8.0%. Net debt stands at €704M. Fundamentals as of Aug 21, 2026
Our scenario range runs from €2.22 (bear case) to €4.05 (bull case); at €3.25, 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 9% below its 52-week high and 13% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Basic Materials peers we cover trades at 19% fair-value upside, at −2%, NVG 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 €0.1087 per share, which is 3.4 % 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 (€3.46) versus Earnings-Based (€0.6200). Highest evidence: FCF DCF (76).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 57 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 58
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.
