The Quality Score stands at 47/100 (below-average quality), in the Basic Materials sector. Bear case: priced above our estimate, the market already discounts strong expectations.

Over the trailing twelve months, Anhui Jinhe Industrial Co generated revenue of 5.1B CNY at a net margin of 3.9%. Revenue grew 16.4% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 2.6%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of 964M CNY. Fundamentals as of Jul 22, 2026

Our scenario range runs from ¥11.15 (bear case) to ¥18.58 (bull case); at ¥20.25, 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 30% below its 52-week high and 9% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Basic Materials peers we cover trades at -46% fair-value upside, at -27%, 002597 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.

Widest divergence: Dividend Discount (¥11.67) versus Earnings-Based (¥6.17). Highest evidence: Residual Income (76).
