Analysis
Korea Zinc Company (010130) currently trades at 1,196,000 KRW, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is 646,063 KRW, implying the stock looks roughly 46.0% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 53/100 (solid quality), in the Basic Materials sector. Bear case: priced above our estimate, the market already discounts strong expectations. Bull case: above-average quality can justify a premium, the entry price still matters most (evidence: high).
Over the trailing twelve months, Korea Zinc Company generated revenue of 18.8T KRW at a net margin of 5.1%. Revenue grew 58.4% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 10.1%. Net debt stands at 2.4T KRW. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026
Our scenario range runs from 454,388 KRW (bear case) to 807,579 KRW (bull case); at 1,196,000 KRW, the current price sits above that range. Bear and bull are the same models run on conservative and optimistic assumptions (margins, growth, valuation multiples), so a plausible valuation range, not a price target. The share trades near its 52-week high and 64% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Basic Materials peers we cover trades at -40% fair-value upside, at -46%, 010130 screens richer than that median.
Fair Value models
Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted blend. Evidence (0–100) measures how completely this model’s inputs are available: well-fed models carry more weight in the blend. The spread across models is intentional, each one stresses a different value driver; dividend models, for instance, come out structurally low when payout is small.
