What matters now
- For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.
- The price sits in the lower half of our model range, the side with the larger margin of safety.
- Read the verdict with care: some models are missing inputs, so the estimate scatters more than usual.

How to read this chart
60‑month range $25.66 – $132.36 · fair‑value band $118.70 – $197.83 · the $132.36 price screens below the $158.27 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). Dashed = 300-day average. As of Aug 13, 2026.
Analysis
KB Financial Group Inc (KB) currently trades at $132.36, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $158.27, implying the stock looks roughly 16.4% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 51/100 (solid quality), in the Financial Services sector. How firm this estimate is: it rests on 24 models at a data quality of 80/100, which puts the evidence level at medium.
Revenue grew 15.2% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 10.0%. Net debt stands at $94.9T. The stock trades on a trailing P/E of 12.5. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $118.70 (bear case) to $197.83 (bull case); at $132.36, 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 near its 52-week high and 78% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at −10% fair-value upside, at 20%, KB screens cheaper than that median.
Fair Value models
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 4 models by family
Widest divergence: Multiples ($214,433) versus Asset-Based ($115,929). Highest evidence: Residual Income (70).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 47 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 84
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.
