Analysis
iMBC Co (052220) currently trades at 1,748 KRW, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is 4,004 KRW, implying the stock looks roughly 129.1% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 64/100 (solid quality), in the Technology 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, iMBC Co generated revenue of 49.0B KRW at a net margin of 2.5%. Revenue declined 5.9% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 290.3%. Fundamentals as of Jul 22, 2026
Our scenario range runs from 3,001 KRW (bear case) to 5,468 KRW (bull case); at 1,748 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 60% below its 52-week high, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at 8% fair-value upside, at 129%, 052220 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 9 models by family
Widest divergence: Growth DCF (4,269 KRW) versus Dividend Discount (452.25 KRW). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
