Analysis
Datang International Power Generation Co (601991) currently trades at ¥6.48, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ¥4.95, implying the stock looks roughly 23.6% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 50/100 (solid quality), in the Utilities 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, Datang International Power Generation Co generated revenue of 121B CNY at a net margin of 6.6%. Revenue grew 0.2% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 10.7%. Net debt stands at 238B CNY. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026
Our scenario range runs from ¥2.58 (bear case) to ¥8.48 (bull case); at ¥6.48, 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 106% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Utilities peers we cover trades at -55% fair-value upside, at -24%, 601991 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.
All 25 models by family
