misvalued
Incorrectly assessed worth
Misvalued means assigned the wrong value—whether too high or too low.
The term appears most often in financial contexts: The market has misvalued this stock for years.
It also applies to intangibles: His contributions to the project were consistently misvalued by management.
Unlike undervalued or overvalued, misvalued doesn't specify the direction of the error.
