Investors have responded positively to Ferrari’s recent run of news. The share price is €338.5 after a 30 day share price return of 12.68% and a 90 day share price return of 18.05%, even though the 1 year total shareholder return declined 17.54%. Short term momentum therefore contrasts with a weaker recent longer term experience.

After a sharp move that leaves Ferrari shares at €338.5 and still below the 1 year total shareholder return peak, the key issue now is simple: does the current valuation still offer a favourable trade off between risk and reward?

Most Popular Narrative: 39% Overvalued

According to the most widely followed Ferrari narrative by andre_santos, the fair value is set at €243.56, which sits well below the current €338.5 share price. This frames a clear valuation gap for investors to assess.

Ferrari is a solid company, racing with a wide moat with its worldwide known brand that results in a very high operating margin. The fact that its ROIC is almost double its cost of capital (WACC) gives us good reasons to believe in its investment decisions.

Want to understand why a business with high margins, strong returns on capital and a premium brand still lands at this fair value estimate? The narrative leans heavily on detailed assumptions around future cash flows, profit growth and how long Ferrari can sustain its current pricing power. If you are curious which specific earnings and revenue paths support that €243.56 figure, the full story is where those numbers come together.

Result: Fair Value of €243.56 (OVERVALUED)

However, Ferrari’s premium valuation case could be challenged if revenue or net income growth slows, or if broader luxury car demand weakens and reduces pricing power.
