From 1 valuation models · updated yesterday

Fair value updated Aug 12, 2026, revised from ¥0.2000 to ¥0.2100 (+5.0%) since Jul 5, 2026. Share price −0.5% over the past month.

Below-average quality, and screening another 89% overvalued on our models.

What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (¥0.3100). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
  • Weak quality (35/100) and above fair value at the same time, the margin of safety is missing on both counts.
  • The large gap to fair value rests on thin data (low evidence): fewer applicable models and a shorter history. Read it with extra caution.
  • A fairly wide model range (¥0.1500 to ¥0.3100) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis

Shandong Chenming Paper Holdings (000488) currently trades at ¥1.93, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ¥0.2100, implying the stock looks roughly 89.1% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 35/100 (below-average quality), in the Basic Materials 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: low).

Over the trailing twelve months, Shandong Chenming Paper Holdings generated revenue of 8.4B CNY at a net margin of -87.9%. Revenue grew 274.0% year over year. Net debt stands at 26.6B CNY. Fundamentals as of Aug 12, 2026

Our scenario range runs from ¥0.1500 (bear case) to ¥0.3100 (bull case); at ¥1.93, the current price sits above 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 39% below its 52-week high and 4% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Basic Materials peers we cover trades at 0% fair-value upside, at -89%, 000488 screens richer 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.

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
