Analysis
Cafe24 Corp (042000) currently trades at 18,240 KRW, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is 15,778 KRW, implying the stock looks roughly 13.5% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 66/100 (solid quality), in the Technology 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, Cafe24 Corp generated revenue of 319B KRW at a net margin of 12.6%. Revenue grew 6.0% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 17.0%. Net debt stands at 20.8B KRW. Fundamentals as of Jul 22, 2026
Our scenario range runs from 11,717 KRW (bear case) to 28,031 KRW (bull case); at 18,240 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 and 3% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at -50% fair-value upside, at -14%, 042000 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 26 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models (36,181 KRW) versus Dividend Discount (2,840 KRW). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
