Analysis
KDDI Corp PK (KDDIY) currently trades at $19.11, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $26.96, implying the stock looks roughly 29.1% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 63/100 (solid quality), in the Communication Services sector. Bull case: the DCF Models group reads highest at a median of $26.51 per share, and 18 of the 23 models we run sit above the $19.11 price. Bear case: the Asset-Based group reads lowest at $5.60, and 5 of the 23 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is medium.
Over the trailing twelve months, KDDI Corp PK generated revenue of $6.1T at a net margin of 11.7%. Revenue grew 8.8% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 14.0%. Net debt stands at $4.3T. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $18.25 (bear case) to $34.12 (bull case); at $19.11, 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 27% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Communication Services peers we cover trades at 30% fair-value upside, at 41%, KDDIY 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 23 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models ($26.51) versus Asset-Based ($5.60). Highest evidence: FCF DCF (80).

Quality Score breakdown
Of which business quality 61 · Market factors (momentum, volatility) 72
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.
