  • Becton Dickinson (BDX) Valuation Review Amid Mixed Share Price Performance
    February 4, 2026, 7:55 AM EST. Becton Dickinson's (BDX) share price shows short-term gains with a 2.27% rise in one day and 17.07% over 90 days, yet its long-term returns remain negative over one, three, and five years. The stock closed near $206.50, close to a fair value estimate of $204.83, implying a slight overvaluation of 0.8%. The company's upcoming separation of its Biosciences and Diagnostic Solutions segment aims to focus BDX as a pure-play medical technology firm, expected to boost cash flow and margins. However, risks such as trade tensions and execution challenges persist. Notably, a discounted cash flow (DCF) model values BDX significantly higher at approximately $330.31, suggesting a potentially undervalued opportunity depending on growth and risk assessments.
