What the Numbers Say It Is Worth
The Fair Value Range
Our framework reads AVOID: it trades above our $22.26 fair value estimate, 8.80% revenue growth.
Fair value range in SAR, drawn from the 2026-09-20 screen. The gold marker is the market price at the same screen. The price runs 14.1% above the base estimate.
Third-party analyst targets: 18 covering, consensus Buy. The average target sits +17% from the screen price.
Reading the gap · Our more conservative model reads it as fully-to-richly valued here, while the Street is more bullish: a quality-at-a-fair-price name rather than a deep-value one.
Price History & Projections

The Business, in Plain Words
Why it gives us pause
At 15.5x forward earnings, the price already runs ahead of the business. It trades 14% above our $22.26 fair value, so you would be buying at a premium, not a discount.
The risks · The things to watch: its business and earnings are exposed to Saudi Arabia and to currency swings.
