What matters now
- The rarer combination: high quality (72/100) AND below fair value. That earns a closer look rather than a quick verdict.
- The price is below even our cautious bear case ($266.83). The market is more pessimistic than our downside scenario.
- A fairly wide model range ($266.83 to $518.91) 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 31, 2026.
How to read this chart
60‑month range $32.68 – $207.30 · fair‑value band $266.83 – $518.91 · the $204.28 price screens below the $383.76 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). 2 fiscal years are left out: there the valuation rested on only a fraction of the usual models. Dashed = 300-day average. As of Aug 31, 2026.
Analysis
Seneca Foods Corp A (SENEA) currently trades at $204.28, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $383.76, implying the stock looks roughly 46.8% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 72/100 (solid quality), in the Consumer Defensive sector. Bull case: the DCF Models group reads highest at a median of $388.12 per share, and 18 of the 25 models we run sit above the $204.28 price. Bear case: the Asset-Based group reads lowest at $97.04, and 7 of the 25 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.
Over the trailing twelve months, Seneca Foods Corp A generated revenue of $1.7B at a net margin of 6.9%. Revenue grew 13.9% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 16.5%. Net debt stands at $232M. Fundamentals as of Aug 31, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $266.83 (bear case) to $518.91 (bull case); at $204.28, 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 near its 52-week high and 132% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Defensive peers we cover trades at −27% fair-value upside, at 88%, SENEA screens cheaper than that median.
Fair Value models
This estimate rests on fiscal year 2026 figures, and about 5 months have passed since. In that time the company retained roughly $7.18 per share, which is 1.9 % 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 25 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models ($388.12) versus Dividend Discount ($0.0500). Highest evidence: FCF DCF (81).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 71 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 91
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.
