What matters now
- The model range is unusually wide (¥2.58 to ¥8.48). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.
- Evidence is limited here (fewer models, shorter history), so the fair value is a rougher estimate than usual.
Price vs Fair Value (5 years)
White line = price, green steps = our fair value per fiscal year, dashed = 300-day average. As of Aug 29, 2026.
How to read this chart
60‑month range ¥2.14 – ¥9.18 · fair‑value band ¥2.58 – ¥8.48 · the ¥5.58 price screens above the ¥4.95 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). 1 fiscal year is left out: there the valuation rested on only a fraction of the usual models. Dashed = 300-day average. As of Aug 29, 2026.
Analysis
Datang International Power Generation Co Ltd Class A (601991) currently trades at ¥5.58, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ¥4.95, implying the stock looks roughly 12.7% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 50/100 (solid quality), in the Utilities sector. Bull case: the Multiples group reads highest at a median of ¥6.78 per share, and 11 of the 25 models we run sit above the ¥5.58 price. Bear case: the Asset-Based group reads lowest at ¥1.23, and 14 of the 25 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is low.
Over the trailing twelve months, Datang International Power Generation Co Ltd Class A 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 29, 2026
Our scenario range runs from ¥2.58 (bear case) to ¥8.48 (bull case); at ¥5.58, 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 44% below its 52-week high and 78% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Utilities peers we cover trades at −52% fair-value upside, at −11%, 601991 screens cheaper than that median.
Fair Value models
This estimate rests on fiscal year 2025 figures, and about 8 months have passed since. In that time the company retained roughly ¥0.1435 per share, which is 2.9 % of the fair value. The fair value deliberately does not add this in: the models value reported figures, not a projection.
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.
All 25 models by family
Widest divergence: Multiples (¥6.78) versus Asset-Based (¥1.23). Highest evidence: FCF DCF (71).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 47 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 59
Non-valuation factor families (profitability, growth, cashflow, financial strength, momentum …), each academically grounded. Valuation itself sits in the Fair Value and is deliberately excluded here to avoid double-counting.
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.
