Analysis
Johnson Electric Holdings (0179) currently trades at HK$19.64, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is HK$4.56, implying the stock looks roughly 76.8% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 58/100 (solid quality), in the Consumer Cyclical 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, Johnson Electric Holdings generated revenue of HK$3.7B at a net margin of 5.5%. Revenue grew 1.3% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 7.2%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of HK$519M. Fundamentals as of Aug 2, 2026
Our scenario range runs from HK$3.29 (bear case) to HK$5.70 (bull case); at HK$19.64, 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 57% below its 52-week high and 5% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Cyclical peers we cover trades at -44% fair-value upside, at -77%, 0179 screens richer 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 25 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models (HK$4.77) versus Dividend Discount (HK$1.09). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
