In February 2025, Investing.com’s Fair Value models identified a significant opportunity in Napco Security Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:NSSC), flagging the stock as substantially undervalued. Investors who acted on this insight were rewarded with a remarkable 63% return when the stock reached its target price in October. This success story highlights how InvestingPro’s Fair Value analysis helps investors find optimal entry points, understand a stock’s intrinsic value, and make more informed decisions by combining multiple valuation methodologies. For those seeking similar opportunities today, our Most undervalued list showcases stocks our models currently identify as trading below their fair value.
Napco Security Technologies is a leading provider of security products for commercial and residential markets, specializing in access control systems, alarm systems, and recurring revenue services. When InvestingPro’s Fair Value models identified the stock as undervalued on February 4, 2025, Napco was trading at just $26.42 despite solid fundamentals. At that time, the company reported quarterly revenue of $186.5 million and EPS of $1.31. The Fair Value analysis indicated an intrinsic value of $39.28, suggesting significant upside potential of nearly 49%. This was particularly notable as the stock had experienced volatility in the six months prior, with several months showing negative returns.
The Fair Value thesis played out impressively over the subsequent months. By October 16, 2025, Napco’s stock hit $43.19, exceeding our Fair Value target and delivering a 63.47% return to investors who followed the analysis. The stock currently trades at $40.35, maintaining most of these gains. Throughout this period, Napco demonstrated strong business performance, with recurring revenue growth becoming a key driver of its success. The company’s financial health score of 1.89 (where higher is better) indicated a robust foundation for the price appreciation that followed.
Recent developments have validated InvestingPro’s analysis. Napco consistently beat earnings expectations throughout 2025, with its Q1 2026 results continuing this trend. Analysts have taken notice, with multiple firms raising their price targets. DA Davidson increased their target to $50, while TD Cowen raised theirs from $26 to $43. The stock reached 52-week highs twice during this period, reflecting growing market confidence in Napco’s business model and growth prospects. Despite slight decreases in EBITDA and EPS compared to the time of our initial analysis, the market has recognized the company’s long-term value proposition, particularly its growing recurring revenue streams.
InvestingPro’s Fair Value methodology combines multiple valuation approaches to arrive at a comprehensive intrinsic value estimate. This includes discounted cash flow models, comparable company analyses, and consideration of analyst consensus targets. By aggregating these methods and applying a margin of safety principle, InvestingPro provides investors with a reliable framework for identifying mispriced securities before the broader market recognizes the opportunity.
