Analysis
Korea Petroleum Industries Company (004090) currently trades at 10,740 KRW, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is 9,875 KRW, implying the stock looks roughly 8.1% fairly valued today. The Quality Score stands at 44/100 (below-average quality), in the Basic Materials 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: medium).
Over the trailing twelve months, Korea Petroleum Industries Company generated revenue of 709B KRW at a net margin of 1.0%. Revenue grew 7.6% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 3.5%. Net debt stands at 127B KRW. Fundamentals as of Jul 23, 2026
Our scenario range runs from 7,406 KRW (bear case) to 12,343 KRW (bull case); at 10,740 KRW, 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 about 68% below its 52-week high, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Basic Materials peers we cover trades at -59% fair-value upside, at -8%, 004090 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.
All 14 models by family
Widest divergence: Asset-Based (10,783 KRW) versus Earnings-Based (2,370 KRW). Highest evidence: Residual Income (76).
