Analysis
VM Inc (089970) currently trades at 60,500 KRW, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is 13,066 KRW, implying the stock looks roughly 78.4% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 62/100 (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, VM Inc generated revenue of 57.8B KRW at a net margin of 28.1%. It earns a return on equity of 28.9%. Fundamentals as of Jul 17, 2026
Our scenario range runs from 10,219 KRW (bear case) to 23,918 KRW (bull case); at 60,500 KRW, 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 19% below its 52-week high, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at -75% fair-value upside, at -78%, 089970 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 24 models by family
Widest divergence: Growth Earnings (43,910 KRW) versus Asset-Based (4,863 KRW). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
