At a last close of €154.2 versus a narrative fair value near €202.7, adidas is framed as materially discounted, with that gap anchored in growth and margin assumptions.
The accelerating global health and fitness movement is driving strong demand for adidas' performance and athleisure product categories, as demonstrated by double-digit growth in key segments like Running (+25%), Training (+20%), and Basketball, positioning the company for sustained volume expansion and recurring sales growth (impacts revenue and earnings).
Want to see what justifies that higher fair value for adidas? The narrative leans on steadier revenue expansion, thicker margins, and a valuation multiple that assumes the brand keeps earning its premium.
