Fluor (FLR) has been drawing fresh attention after recent share price moves, with the stock up over the past week, month, and past 3 months, putting its longer term performance back in focus for investors.
See our latest analysis for Fluor.
That latest move takes Fluor’s share price to $46.92 and adds to a 12.52% year to date share price return. The 1 year total shareholder return of a 4.90% decline contrasts with a 161.39% gain over 5 years, which may suggest longer term momentum alongside recent volatility in how the market is pricing its risks and prospects.

With Fluor trading at $46.92, a value score of 3, and a share price sitting below the average analyst target of $50.50, investors may ask whether this reflects a genuine mispricing or whether expectations about future growth are already fully reflected in the current price.
Fluor’s most followed narrative points to a fair value of $51.00, a touch above the recent $46.92 close, which puts the current analyst thinking in the spotlight.
The company’s new strategy focusing on cash generation and earnings growth is likely to improve net margins and enhance earnings. Expansion into strategic markets, coupled with project completions and acquisitions, is expected to increase revenue and enhance shareholder value.
Curious how a view of mid single digit revenue growth, thinner profit margins, and a higher future earnings multiple still add up to that $51.00 fair value? The full narrative lays out the math behind that tension.
Result: Fair Value of $51.00 (UNDERVALUED)
