One point per daily model run. The range autoscales, so a flat-looking line can still hide 1–2 point moves — read the From → To values for the actual range.
Analyst estimate revisions

|---|---|
| 90-day change | -1.3% |
| Forward EPS estimate | $10.15 |
Over the last 90 days, what analysts expect EFX to earn is drifting lower (-1.3%). The estimate is derived from price and forward P/E captured at the same instant, so a moving share price does not move this number — only a changed forecast does.
A rising estimate means expectations are improving, not that the price has failed to keep up — and estimates get cut as readily as they get raised. It is not part of the Bull Rankings score. Biggest movers across the market →

Equifax Inc. (EFX): score, valuation & FAQ
Equifax Inc. (EFX) is a Consulting Services company that scores 66.7 out of 100 on the Bull Rankings quality-growth model — a solid, above-average reading. The score blends three pillars — quality (durable returns, healthy margins, low leverage), growth (revenue and earnings), and value (valuation versus sector peers) — into one number, refreshed daily; it is a screen, not a buy recommendation.
On valuation, EFX sits about 23% above our discounted-cash-flow fair value — the current price implies roughly 17% annual free-cash-flow growth over the next decade.
Is EFX a good stock to buy?
Bull Rankings scores EFX 66.7 out of 100 on its quality-growth model, which is a solid, above-average reading. A score is a quantitative screen of Equifax Inc.'s fundamentals, not personalised financial advice — weigh it against your own time horizon and risk tolerance, and read the risk factors below before acting.
Why does EFX score 66.7 on Bull Rankings?
The score is carried by growth at 80.9 out of 100, and held back by value at 51.9 — the three pillars combine geometrically, so a weak one cannot be papered over by a strong one. EFX grades middle-of-pack across the graded signals. Each signal is graded against sector-aware thresholds rather than one absolute bar, so EFX is measured against Consulting Services peers, not against the market as a whole.
Is EFX overvalued or undervalued?
Based on $192.62, EFX sits about 23% above our discounted-cash-flow fair value — the current price implies roughly 17% annual free-cash-flow growth over the next decade. It trades at a 33.9x P/E (graded C+). Discounted-cash-flow estimates are sensitive to growth and discount-rate assumptions, so treat this as a cross-check, not a price target.
What are the main risks of investing in EFX?
The bear case points to an elevated valuation: a 31× P/E paired with a reverse‑DCF implied 15% FCF growth—far above the actual 10.3% revenue growth—suggests optimism is baked in. A debt‑to‑equity of 1.21 and beta of 1.3 amplify downside if interest rates rise or macro‑employment slows, which would hit the Workforce Solutions pipeline. A breach in data security or regulatory clampdown would immediately erode the high‑margin contracts and confirm the over‑priced risk.
