Fair value as of: Jul 22, 2026

From 3 valuation models · updated 19 days ago

Fair value updated Jul 22, 2026, revised from ¥1.05 to ¥1.76 (+67.6%) since Jun 25, 2026.

Below-average quality, screening 32% undervalued on our models.

What matters now

  • The large discount to fair value meets weak quality (30/100). That raises the risk this is a value trap rather than a bargain.
  • The price is below even our cautious bear case (¥1.60). The market is more pessimistic than our downside scenario.
  • The large gap to fair value rests on thin data (low evidence): fewer applicable models and a shorter history. Read it with extra caution.

Analysis

Palm Eco-Town Development Co (002431) currently trades at ¥1.33, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ¥1.76, implying the stock looks roughly 32.3% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 30/100 (below-average quality), in the Industrials sector. Bull case: trading below our estimate, it may offer upside if the fundamentals hold. Bear case: a low price can be a value trap when quality is weak or the data is thin (evidence: low), always confirm before acting.

Over the trailing twelve months, Palm Eco-Town Development Co generated revenue of 1.5B CNY at a net margin of -75.4%. Revenue declined 64.9% year over year. Net debt stands at 1.4B CNY. Fundamentals as of Jul 22, 2026

Our scenario range runs from ¥1.60 (bear case) to ¥2.01 (bull case); at ¥1.33, 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 about 61% below its 52-week high, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at -45% fair-value upside, at 32%, 002431 screens cheaper 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
