Analysis
CJ CGV Co (079160) currently trades at 5,570 KRW, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is 7,602 KRW, implying the stock looks roughly 36.5% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 38/100 (below-average quality), in the Communication Services 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: high), always confirm before acting.
Over the trailing twelve months, CJ CGV Co generated revenue of 2.3T KRW at a net margin of -6.3%. Revenue grew 7.5% year over year. It earns a return on equity of -26.6%. Net debt stands at 626B KRW. Fundamentals as of Jul 24, 2026
Our scenario range runs from 6,637 KRW (bear case) to 8,464 KRW (bull case); at 5,570 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 16% below its 52-week high and 30% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Communication Services peers we cover trades at -52% fair-value upside, at 36%, 079160 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 16 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models (13,996 KRW) versus Dividend Discount (1,989 KRW). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
