What matters now
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($320.21). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- Solid but not exceptional quality (68/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
- A fairly wide model range ($155.02 to $320.21) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis
Watts Water Technologies Inc (WTS) currently trades at $355.53, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $233.65, implying the stock looks roughly 52.2% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 68/100 (solid quality), in the Industrials sector. Bull case: the DCF Models group reads highest at a median of $188.99 per share, and 0 of the 24 models we run sit above the $355.53 price. Bear case: the Asset-Based group reads lowest at $40.55, and 24 of the 24 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.
Over the trailing twelve months, Watts Water Technologies Inc generated revenue of $2.6B at a net margin of 14.3%. Revenue grew 21.4% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 18.9%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $208M. Fundamentals as of Aug 31, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $155.02 (bear case) to $320.21 (bull case); at $355.53, 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 near its 52-week high and 51% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at −52% fair-value upside, at −34%, WTS 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 $6.08 per share, which is 2.6 % 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 ($188.99) versus Asset-Based ($40.55). Highest evidence: FCF DCF (79).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 68 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 65
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.
