What matters now

  • The large discount to fair value meets weak quality (41/100). That raises the risk this is a value trap rather than a bargain.
  • The price is below even our cautious bear case (118.36 TWD). The market is more pessimistic than our downside scenario.

Analysis

Wafer Works (6182) currently trades at 111.00 TWD, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is 157.60 TWD, implying the stock looks roughly 29.6% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 41/100 (below-average quality), in the Technology sector. Bull case: the Asset-Based group reads highest at a median of 546.13 TWD per share, and 7 of the 16 models we run sit above the 111.00 TWD price. Bear case: the Earnings-Based group reads lowest at 18.01 TWD, and 9 of the 16 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is medium.

Over the trailing twelve months, Wafer Works generated revenue of 10.0B TWD at a net margin of 0.3%. Revenue grew 7.5% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 1.6%. Net debt stands at 4.2B TWD. Fundamentals as of Sep 5, 2026

Our scenario range runs from 118.36 TWD (bear case) to 196.84 TWD (bull case); at 111.00 TWD, the current price sits below 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 near its 52-week high. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at −71% fair-value upside, at 42%, 6182 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 0.0609 TWD per share, which is 0.0 % 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.

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

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.
