What matters now
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (268,515 KRW). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- Weak quality (38/100) and above fair value at the same time, the margin of safety is missing on both counts.
- For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

Analysis
Kiwoom Securities Co (039490) currently trades at 300,500 KRW, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is 214,812 KRW, implying the stock looks roughly 28.5% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 38/100 (below-average quality), in the Financial Services 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, Kiwoom Securities Co generated revenue of 19.3T KRW at a net margin of 7.0%. Revenue grew 177.2% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 21.5%. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026
Our scenario range runs from 161,109 KRW (bear case) to 268,515 KRW (bull case); at 300,500 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 about 42% below its 52-week high and 72% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at -22% fair-value upside, at -29%, 039490 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.
All 2 models by family
Widest divergence: Multiples (217,412 KRW) versus Asset-Based (171,372 KRW). Highest evidence: P/B Multiple (55).
