Percentile across ~4,600 US stocks on Ticker Nerd’s systematic factor model. Higher is better. How the model is built and tested
Value (83): The shares cost little relative to the profits and assets behind them — which can mean the market is too gloomy, or that the business really is in trouble.
Volatility (36): The share price moves around a lot.
Size (16): Larger than most of the companies we track — more scrutinised, less often mispriced.

The 11 Wall Street analysts covering Flowserve Corp. have a median 12-month price target of $89, with estimates ranging from $70 to $100. These are third-party analyst estimates, not Ticker Nerd forecasts, and they are frequently wrong.
Of the 11 analysts covering Flowserve Corp., 7 rate it a Buy, 4 a Hold and 0 a Sell. Ticker Nerd's systematic factor model ranks Flowserve Corp. 56 out of 100 across roughly 4,600 US stocks as at 28 Oct 2026. None of this is personal advice — it does not consider your circumstances.
As at 28 Oct 2026, Flowserve Corp. ranks 56 out of 100 on Ticker Nerd's systematic factor model — a percentile across roughly 4,600 US stocks, built from its factor families. Its strongest factor family is Value (83 of 100).

What the data says: the median 12-month target from 11 analysts implies +10.8% from the last close, and Ticker Nerd's factor model ranks Flowserve Corp. 56 out of 100 as at 28 Oct 2026. Analyst targets are third-party estimates and frequently wrong; none of this is personal advice.
No analyst covering Flowserve Corp. publishes a 2030 price target — Wall Street targets run 12 to 18 months out. Sites quoting a 2030 price for FLS are extrapolating price history, which says nothing about the business. The furthest attributed numbers are the current analyst targets: $70 to $100 over the next 12 months.
Flowserve Corp. returned +17.9% over the 12 months to 29 Oct 2026, with dividends reinvested. Past performance does not indicate future returns.
