What matters now
The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($52.19). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
The large gap to fair value rests on thin data (low evidence): fewer applicable models and a shorter history. Read it with extra caution.
Solid but not exceptional quality (53/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
Price vs Fair Value (5 years)
White line = price, green steps = our fair value per fiscal year, dashed = 300-day average. As of Sep 10, 2026.
How to read this chart
60‑month range $21.91 – $316.85 · fair‑value band $29.59 – $52.19 · the $208.07 price screens above the $41.88 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 Sep 10, 2026.
Tower Semiconductor Ltd (TSEM) currently trades at $208.07, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $41.88, implying the stock looks roughly 396.8% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 53/100 (solid quality), in the Technology sector. Bull case: the Growth Earnings group reads highest at a median of $42.27 per share, and 0 of the 15 models we run sit above the $208.07 price. Bear case: the Asset-Based group reads lowest at $17.22, and 15 of the 15 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is low.
Over the trailing twelve months, Tower Semiconductor Ltd generated revenue of $1.6B at a net margin of 15.1%. Revenue grew 15.5% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 8.7%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $73.9M. Fundamentals as of Sep 10, 2026
Scenario range: $29.59 (bear) to $52.19 (bull), the price of $208.07 sits above it. Bear and bull are the same models on cautious and optimistic assumptions, a range, not a price target. The share trades about 31% below its 52-week high, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at −63% fair-value upside, at −80%, TSEM screens richer than that median.
Fair Value models
Based on fiscal year 2025 figures (about 8 months old). Earnings retained since then ($1.51 per share) are deliberately not added.

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.
