Faes Farma trades at 12.5% below its estimated fair value and is considered good relative value compared to peers.

The dividend yield of 4.52% is lower than top-tier Spanish payers, and while dividends have grown over the past decade, they remain volatile with an unstable track record despite being covered by cash flow and earnings.
