With Kohl’s trading at US$19.85 against an analyst price target of US$21.75 and an estimated intrinsic value gap of around 70%, the key question is whether this reflects genuine upside or whether the market already prices in future growth.
According to the most followed narrative on Simply Wall St, Kohl’s fair value of $34 sits well above the recent $19.85 close, framing a wide valuation gap that some investors are watching closely.
We at the fund continue to view Kohl’s as a strong buy and current pricing as an excellent entry point for any interested investors. Currently trading below $8.30, even at a conservative historical valuation we see Kohl’s worth north of $20 per share, and optimistically more than double that long-term with a current book value alone above $34.

Curious which revenue trajectory, margin assumptions and valuation multiple need to line up to support that kind of upside? The full write up breaks down the moving parts and how they connect to that target.
Result: Fair Value of $34 (UNDERVALUED)
