What matters now
- The model range is unusually wide ($49.21 to $217.84). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.
- The price sits close to our fair value, market and models broadly agree here, little valuation tension.
- For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

How to read this chart
60‑month range $14.80 – $67.93 · fair‑value band $49.21 – $217.84 · the $64.19 price screens below the $69.97 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). Dashed = 300-day average. As of Sep 5, 2026.
Analysis
Virtu Financial, Inc. (VIRT) currently trades at $64.19, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $69.97, implying the stock looks roughly 8.3% fairly valued today. The Quality Score stands at 60/100 (solid quality), in the Financial Services sector. Bull case: the Earnings-Based group reads highest at a median of $81.43 per share, and 8 of the 13 models we run sit above the $64.19 price. Bear case: the Asset-Based group reads lowest at $12.18, and 5 of the 13 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.
Over the trailing twelve months, Virtu Financial, Inc. generated revenue of $3.0B at a net margin of 18.1%. Revenue grew 30.3% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 56.9%. Net debt stands at $7.9B. Fundamentals as of Sep 5, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $49.21 (bear case) to $217.84 (bull case); at $64.19, 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 near its 52-week high and 106% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at −37% fair-value upside, at 9%, VIRT 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 $3.44 per share, which is 4.9 % 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 13 models by family
Widest divergence: Earnings-Based ($81.43) versus Asset-Based ($12.18). Highest evidence: Owner Earnings (73).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 58 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 86
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.
