Is Kroger Company overvalued?

What is the price target of Kroger Company (KR)?
The 12-month analyst consensus target is $74.25, about 14.7% above the current $64.71. A consensus target is the average of Wall Street's 12-month forecasts, so it works as a sentiment gauge rather than a guarantee, and it resets with every earnings cycle.
What is the future stock price of KR by 2030?
Our research-backed model puts the 2030 base case at $3,212.34, built from revenue projections, a growth-adjusted P/S multiple, net debt, and share dilution. It is a scenario rather than a prediction, and the bull and bear cases around it matter more than the single number when you are sizing a position.
What is the intrinsic value of Kroger Company (KR)?
Our DCF model estimates intrinsic value at $72.60, a +10.9% margin of safety versus today's $64.71. Intrinsic value is what the projected cash flows are worth today. A positive reading means the price sits below that estimate, leaving a cushion if growth holds.
What is Kroger Company's revenue?
Kroger Company's trailing twelve-month revenue is $147.64B, and our model projects it reaching about $164.20B by 2030. Revenue scale anchors the valuation multiples and shows whether growth is reaching the top line, so it is best read alongside margin and growth trends to see if that revenue is getting more profitable over time.
Altman Z-Score?
Kroger Company's Altman Z-Score is 3.88, which places it in the safe zone. The Altman Z-Score gauges bankruptcy risk from profitability, leverage, and asset efficiency, and a higher reading points to lower financial distress risk.
