What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (34,090 KRW). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
  • The large gap to fair value rests on thin data (low evidence): fewer applicable models and a shorter history. Read it with extra caution.
  • Solid but not exceptional quality (61/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
  • A fairly wide model range (15,787 KRW to 34,090 KRW) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis

KEPCO Engineering & Construction (052690) currently trades at 107,600 KRW, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is 19,346 KRW, implying the stock looks roughly 456.2% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 61/100 (solid quality), in the Industrials sector. Bull case: the Growth Earnings group reads highest at a median of 35,652 KRW per share, and 0 of the 24 models we run sit above the 107,600 KRW price. Bear case: the Growth DCF group reads lowest at 9,236 KRW, and 24 of the 24 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is low.

Over the trailing twelve months, KEPCO Engineering & Construction generated revenue of 454B KRW at a net margin of 4.9%. Revenue grew 13.3% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 4.7%. Net debt stands at 20.7B KRW. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026

Our scenario range runs from 15,787 KRW (bear case) to 34,090 KRW (bull case); at 107,600 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 46% below its 52-week high and 58% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at −46% fair-value upside, at −82%, 052690 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.

Model Bear Bear = the cautious scenario: the same model computed with conservative anchors (lower growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bull it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target.BaseBull Bull = the optimistic scenario: the same model computed with favourable anchors (higher growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bear it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target. Evidence

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.
