What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (¥10.56). The favourable scenario is already priced in.

Analysis

Wuhu Sanlian Forging Co (001282) currently trades at ¥16.17, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ¥8.40, implying the stock looks roughly 48.1% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 30/100 (below-average quality), in the Consumer Cyclical 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: high).

Over the trailing twelve months, Wuhu Sanlian Forging Co generated revenue of 1.6B CNY at a net margin of 6.5%. Revenue grew 1.5% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 6.7%. Net debt stands at 498M CNY. Fundamentals as of Jul 21, 2026

Our scenario range runs from ¥6.30 (bear case) to ¥10.56 (bull case); at ¥16.17, 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 43% below its 52-week high, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Cyclical peers we cover trades at -44% fair-value upside, at -48%, 001282 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.
