What matters now
- The price is below even our cautious bear case ($33.91). The market is more pessimistic than our downside scenario.
- Solid quality (63/100) at a price below fair value, the discount is the argument here, not the business quality.
- A fairly wide model range ($33.91 to $65.68) 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 $17.26 – $52.18 · fair‑value band $33.91 – $65.68 · the $30.51 price screens below the $48.45 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). 3 fiscal years are left out: there the valuation rested on only a fraction of the usual models. Dashed = 300-day average. As of Aug 27, 2026.
Analysis
Pilgrims Pride Corp (PPC) currently trades at $30.51, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $48.45, implying the stock looks roughly 37.0% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 63/100 (solid quality), in the Consumer Defensive sector. Bull case: the Dividend Discount group reads highest at a median of $126.01 per share, and 25 of the 26 models we run sit above the $30.51 price. Bear case: the Asset-Based group reads lowest at $10.36, and 1 of the 26 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is medium.
Over the trailing twelve months, Pilgrims Pride Corp generated revenue of $18.6B at a net margin of 4.8%. Revenue grew 1.6% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 25.8%. Net debt stands at $2.7B. Fundamentals as of Aug 27, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $33.91 (bear case) to $65.68 (bull case); at $30.51, 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 37% below its 52-week high and 12% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Defensive peers we cover trades at −27% fair-value upside, at 59%, PPC 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 $2.52 per share, which is 5.2 % 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 26 models by family
Widest divergence: Dividend Discount ($126.01) versus Asset-Based ($10.36). Highest evidence: FCF DCF (78).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 60 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 35
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.
