Analysis
Korea Zinc Inc (010130) currently trades at 1,222,000 KRW, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is 646,063 KRW, implying the stock looks roughly 89.1% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 53/100 (solid quality), in the Basic Materials sector. Bull case: the Growth Earnings group reads highest at a median of 649,125 KRW per share, and 0 of the 17 models we run sit above the 1,222,000 KRW price. Bear case: the Dividend Discount group reads lowest at 117,530 KRW, and 17 of the 17 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is medium.
Over the trailing twelve months, Korea Zinc Inc 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 19, 2026
Our scenario range runs from 454,388 KRW (bear case) to 807,579 KRW (bull case); at 1,222,000 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 67% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Basic Materials peers we cover trades at −37% fair-value upside, at −47%, 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, family-balanced 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. Every input is real reported data, nothing guessed.
All 17 models by family
Widest divergence: Growth Earnings (649,125 KRW) versus Dividend Discount (117,530 KRW). Highest evidence: Residual Income (76).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 50 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 48
Non-valuation factor families (profitability, growth, cashflow, financial strength, momentum …), each academically grounded. Valuation itself sits in the Fair Value and is deliberately excluded here to avoid double-counting.
All values are scores from 0 to 100 (100 = best against fixed, research-based bands), not percentages. The three market factors (momentum, 52-week proximity, low volatility) are displayed but carry zero weight in the headline number: market sentiment is not a business property.
