What matters now
- A fairly wide model range ($19.94 to $41.65) leaves room in how you read the outcome.
- The price sits in the upper half of our model range, so the margin of safety is thin.
- The data supports the verdict: every model runs on fully documented inputs.

Analysis
Relx PLC ADR (RELX) currently trades at $36.65, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $32.24, implying the stock looks roughly 13.7% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 83/100 (high quality), in the Industrials sector. Bull case: the DCF Models group reads highest at a median of $22.89 per share, and 0 of the 24 models we run sit above the $36.65 price. Bear case: the Earnings-Based group reads lowest at $6.00, and 24 of the 24 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.
Over the trailing twelve months, Relx PLC ADR generated revenue of $9.6B at a net margin of 21.5%. Revenue grew 1.2% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 70.5%. Net debt stands at $7.2B. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $19.94 (bear case) to $41.65 (bull case); at $36.65, 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 31% below its 52-week high and 36% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at −24% fair-value upside, at −12%, RELX 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 $0.5605 per share, which is 1.7 % 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 24 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models ($22.89) versus Asset-Based ($0.9000). Highest evidence: FCF DCF (79).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 75 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 47
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.
