There is no such thing as inherent value. All value is subjective. Humans are the ones making these subjective value judgement. As such A) without humans nothing has value, and B) humans tend to value themselves a lot, so yes, they have value.
Feel free to replace "humans" with "sentient life" as appropriate.
