What the Numbers Say It Is Worth
The Fair Value Range
Our framework reads OPPORTUNITY: it trades at roughly a 60% discount to our $90.69 fair value, moderate competitive moat.
Fair value range in USD, drawn from the 2026-09-10 screen. The gold marker is the market price at the same screen. A 59.9% margin of safety to the base estimate.
Third-party analyst targets: 13 covering, consensus Buy. The average target sits +37% from the screen price.

The Business, in Plain Words
Water kit that keeps taps and pools running
Every time a farm irrigates fields or a hotel fills its pool, the pumps and filters have to work without fuss. Pentair builds that kit across Flow, Water Solutions and Pool segments and sells it from the US to Southeast Asia. At 11.6 times forward earnings the shares price in almost none of the 16 percent profit margins or 18 percent return on equity the business delivers.
The moderate moat and ethical screen both clear, and the 50 percent gap to our fair value of 93.99 dollars sits well above the 80 dollar analyst median. Revenue is growing 3 percent a year, steady rather than flashy, yet cash generation looks reliable in a sector that rarely gets credit for it.
Low top-line growth leaves it exposed if construction slows or raw-material costs spike, and the industrial cycle can turn quickly. Currency moves across its many markets add another layer of noise. Analysis, not advice.
The risks · The things to watch: its business and earnings are exposed to United Kingdom and to currency swings.
