Also called Undervalued, Overvalued, Fairly valued
Verdict
Undervalued, fair or overvalued, decided by where the price sits against intrinsic value once the margin of safety is applied.
Updated 2026-09-03
The verdict is Angie's one-word summary of price against intrinsic value. There are four, and the fourth is the one that matters most.
- UNDERVALUED. Price sits at or below intrinsic value minus the margin of safety, 10 percent by default.
- FAIR. Price sits inside the band on either side of intrinsic value.
- OVERVALUED. Price sits at or above intrinsic value plus the margin.
- NO VALUE. The model refused to publish a number. See no value.
What a verdict is not
It is not advice and it is not a trading signal. It is a comparison between a price and a number the model computed from a set of assumptions, all of which are shown on the row. A verdict on a low-confidence row is arithmetic the model completed but does not stand behind, and it should be read as an invitation to look at the assumptions rather than as a conclusion.

- Intrinsic value — Angie's estimate of what one share is worth, built from the company's own cash rather than from what anyone will pay. Compare it to today's price.
- Margin of safety — How far the price must sit from fair value before Angie calls it anything but fair: at least this much upside to be undervalued, at least this much downside to be overvalued. It exists because the estimate itself can be wrong.
- Upside — How far intrinsic value sits above or below today's price. Positive means the model thinks the stock is cheap, negative means expensive.
- No value — Angie's refusal. A discounted cash flow cannot honestly price a bank, an insurer, a REIT or a company burning cash with no history of earning any, so it declines rather than inventing a number.
