  • Everest Group valuation: price near $319; mixed signals from fair-value models
    January 18, 2026, 2:23 PM EST. Everest Group trades at $318.81 after a stretch of weak momentum. The stock posted a -4.31% 7-day return and -3.77% 30-day return, with a -9.87% 1-year total return and a 55.19% 5-year TSR. The consensus fair value sits near $369.73 per share, implying a modest discount to the current price. A separate SWS DCF model puts fair value at about $1,367.10, roughly 76.7% below that estimate. The divergence raises questions whether the market has priced in the next growth chapter or if the model is too cautious. Growth drivers include international and specialty lines (engineering, renewable energy, marine, accident) with double-digit premium growth, but earnings hinge on catastrophe losses and reserve trends.
