What matters now
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (4.18 MXN). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- Weak quality (39/100) and above fair value at the same time, the margin of safety is missing on both counts.
- The large gap to fair value rests on thin data (low evidence): fewer applicable models and a shorter history. Read it with extra caution.

Analysis
Controladora Vuela Compañía de Aviación S.A.B. de C.V (VOLARA) currently trades at 11.34 MXN, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is 3.46 MXN, implying the stock looks roughly 227.8% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 39/100 (below-average quality), in the Industrials sector. Bull case: the DCF Models group reads highest at a median of 3.16 MXN per share, and 0 of the 14 models we run sit above the 11.34 MXN price. Bear case: the Earnings-Based group reads lowest at 1.13 MXN, and 14 of the 14 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is low.
Over the trailing twelve months, Controladora Vuela Compañía de Aviación S.A.B. de C.V generated revenue of 3.1B MXN at a net margin of −4.0%. Revenue grew 13.6% year over year. It earns a return on equity of −47.6%. Fundamentals as of Aug 18, 2026
Our scenario range runs from 2.72 MXN (bear case) to 4.18 MXN (bull case); at 11.34 MXN, the current price sits above 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 39% below its 52-week high and 43% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at 45% fair-value upside, at −69%, VOLARA screens richer than that median.
Fair Value models
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 14 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models (3.16 MXN) versus Asset-Based (0.1500 MXN). Highest evidence: FCF DCF (80).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 40 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 38
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.
