This score blends growth quality, financial health, and price attractiveness into a single institutional-grade read.

Our discounted cash flow model estimates CNMD's intrinsic value at $88.75 per share, against the current market price of $36.66. This implies a margin of safety of +52.30%. A meaningful cushion exists against model error, making this a reasonable risk-adjusted entry.
Financial quality is a concern. The Piotroski F-Score of 1/9 flags weakening fundamentals that deserve closer scrutiny before the valuation case can be fully trusted.
Bottom line: CNMD appears richly valued on our framework, with a Smart Value Score of 49/100. At current levels the risk/reward is skewed against the buyer. A materially lower price or significant operational improvement would be needed to change the picture.
