Risk potential23/ 100

IBM's valuation appears fair, fundamentals are above averages and forward estimates point to earnings growth and improving margins.

Score change since last week

The score fell 1 point, mainly due to valuation and price changes. Price fell 0.3%, from $235.59 to $234.89.

Valuation and price changes subtracted 0.9 points. The comparison uses the same available inputs on both dates. Displayed changes are rounded to whole points.

Valuation

Historical cheapness: current PE is 21.5× versus the full-history median of 20.4× shown in the valuation table, producing 46.4/100. Positive weekly observations receive equal weight; lower past EPS alone does not disqualify them.

Outlook-adjusted valuation: 45.5/100. The model applies a 8.5% earnings-growth assumption and a 10% annual return hurdle, with positive credit limited by evidence coverage and confidence.

Forward price scenarios use recent PE history separately. Recent history has a separately weighted median of 24.7× (18-month half-life). The favorable scenario uses 24.8× PE and $13.2 projected EPS, informed by growth, margins and earnings-quality checks. This is a model scenario, not an analyst target. A return to the full-history median is not assumed.

Cash flow & growth

Business trends are strong. Over the past year: revenue +7.9%, earnings +83.4%, operating margin +0.8 percentage points. Free cash flow is 19.7% of revenue. The business score is 72.4/100. Growth, margins and cash generation drive the score. Missing or older data receives less weight.

Favorable scenario

Stronger earnings and valuation could support a higher share price.

Our favorable case uses $13.18 of EPS and a 24.8× PE, suggesting a share price of about $327.13. Valuation history and outlook inform the PE.

The displayed favorable scenario is 34.5% upside, or about $327.23.

This is a scenario based on our model, not a forecast or probability.

Downside scenario

Weaker than expected earnings could put pressure on the share price.

Our downside case uses $9.67 of EPS and a 19.4× PE, suggesting a share price of about $187.75 — 23% below today’s price. Valuation history and outlook inform the PE.

This is a scenario based on our model, not a forecast or probability.
