Analysis
HJ Shipbuilding & Construction Co (097230) currently trades at 17,910 KRW, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is 9,051 KRW, implying the stock looks roughly 49.5% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 36/100 (below-average quality), in the Industrials 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, HJ Shipbuilding & Construction Co generated revenue of 2.1T KRW at a net margin of 3.4%. Revenue grew 32.0% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 13.7%. Net debt stands at 70.0B KRW. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026
Our scenario range runs from 6,336 KRW (bear case) to 11,190 KRW (bull case); at 17,910 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 48% below its 52-week high and 158% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at -34% fair-value upside, at -49%, 097230 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 15 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models (14,269 KRW) versus Dividend Discount (1,400 KRW). Highest evidence: Residual Income (76).
