Share price −17.6% over the past month.

Below-average quality, and screening another 15% overvalued on our models.

What matters now

  • Weak quality (27/100) and above fair value at the same time, the margin of safety is missing on both counts.
  • The model range is unusually wide (11.58 TWD to 55.48 TWD). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.

Analysis

Taiwan Mask Corporation (2338) currently trades at 39.65 TWD, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is 33.54 TWD, implying the stock looks roughly 15.4% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 27/100 (below-average quality), in the Technology 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: medium).

Over the trailing twelve months, Taiwan Mask Corporation generated revenue of 5.9B TWD at a net margin of -12.9%. Revenue declined 5.5% year over year. It earns a return on equity of -19.8%. Net debt stands at 10.4B TWD. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026

Our scenario range runs from 11.58 TWD (bear case) to 55.48 TWD (bull case); at 39.65 TWD, the current price sits within 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 35% below its 52-week high and 47% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at -72% fair-value upside, at -15%, 2338 screens cheaper 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.

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
