Analysis

Taekwang Industrial Co (003240) currently trades at 919,000 KRW, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is 1,632,553 KRW, implying the stock looks roughly 77.6% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 47/100 (below-average quality), in the Basic Materials 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: medium), always confirm before acting.

Over the trailing twelve months, Taekwang Industrial Co generated revenue of 1.9T KRW at a net margin of 1.8%. Revenue grew 9.3% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 2.2%. Fundamentals as of Jul 23, 2026

Our scenario range runs from 1,224,415 KRW (bear case) to 2,040,692 KRW (bull case); at 919,000 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. The share trades about 8% below its 52-week high and 30% 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 78%, 003240 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.
