  • Solid quality (62/100) at a price below fair value, the discount is the argument here, not the business quality.
  • A fairly wide model range (17,925 KRW to 36,685 KRW) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis

KUMHO Engineering & Construction Co (002990) currently trades at 9,770 KRW, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is 23,887 KRW, implying the stock looks roughly 144.5% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 62/100 (solid 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: high), always confirm before acting.

Over the trailing twelve months, KUMHO Engineering & Construction Co generated revenue of 2.0T KRW at a net margin of 3.7%. Revenue declined 3.1% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 32.1%. Net debt stands at 66.2B KRW. Fundamentals as of Jul 23, 2026

Our scenario range runs from 17,925 KRW (bear case) to 36,685 KRW (bull case); at 9,770 KRW, 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. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at -45% fair-value upside, at 145%, 002990 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.
