A solid business, but screening 25% overvalued on our models.

What matters now

  • The model range is unusually wide (¥8.07 to ¥24.15). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.
  • Solid but not exceptional quality (53/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.

Analysis

Guangzhou Metro Design & Research Institute Co (003013) currently trades at ¥19.18, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ¥14.37, implying the stock looks roughly 25.1% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 53/100 (solid quality), in the Industrials 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, Guangzhou Metro Design & Research Institute Co generated revenue of 2.5B CNY at a net margin of 18.9%. Revenue declined 2.9% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 15.5%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of 565M CNY. Fundamentals as of Jul 22, 2026

Our scenario range runs from ¥8.07 (bear case) to ¥24.15 (bull case); at ¥19.18, the current price sits within 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 near its 52-week high and 50% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at -45% fair-value upside, at -25%, 003013 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.
