Analysis
Block, Inc (XYZ) currently trades at $83.37, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $51.23, implying the stock looks roughly 62.7% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 64/100 (solid quality), in the Technology sector. Bull case: the Growth DCF group reads highest at a median of $133.87 per share, and 15 of the 26 models we run sit above the $83.37 price. Bear case: the Asset-Based group reads lowest at $27.80, and 11 of the 26 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.
Over the trailing twelve months, Block, Inc generated revenue of $24.5B at a net margin of 3.3%. Revenue grew 4.9% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 3.7%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of $2.4B. Fundamentals as of Aug 31, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $38.42 (bear case) to $64.04 (bull case); at $83.37, 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 last reported earnings sit well below what analysts expect (earnings in transition, for example after write-downs or an earnings dip); whether the stock is cheap or expensive hinges on the expected recovery actually arriving. Read the fair value with that caveat. The share trades near its 52-week high and 73% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at −30% fair-value upside, at −39%, XYZ screens richer 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 $0.8527 per share, which is 1.7 % 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 26 models by family
Widest divergence: Growth DCF ($133.87) versus Dividend Discount ($3.92). Highest evidence: FCF DCF (76).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 67 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 50
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.
