NGXGROUP
Investo's verdict, shared with you
No fair value published
The derivation ran and was refused by our own plausibility checks — so we publish no number rather than a plausible-looking one.
Why
The derivation failed our plausibility check
The computed value landed outside the 0.4×–2.5× band that real price targets occupy. A result that far from the traded price means one of our inputs is wrong, not that the market is wrong by that much — so we publish nothing rather than clamp it into range.
What we would need
- A per-share input (earnings or book value) that reconciles to the latest audited totals.

Rejected figure · ₦44.46 — floor — raw base ₦44.46 is 0.33x price. This figure is shown only to document what was refused; it is not an estimate and no upside is computed from it.
Method spread · 1.64× between the highest and lowest valuation leg.
Failed plausibility rail · Fair value hit our plausibility bounds: floor — raw base ₦44.46 is 0.33x price. The published base is the rail, not a derivation.
NGX Group is the monopoly infrastructure operator of Nigeria's primary capital market, delivering exceptional H1 2026 results (revenue +118% YoY, PBT +170% YoY) that validate a high-quality franchise with strong operating leverage and a rising ROE trajectory. However, at ₦136 the stock trades at 25.5x trailing P/E and 4.4x P/B — multiples that are materially above both its own historical range and sector peers — leaving no margin of safety and embedding a growth premium that must be consistently delivered. The committee score's 'negative' Value factor is the dominant concern: the quality of the business is not in dispute, but the current price appears to fully discount several years of exceptional performance.
