What matters now
- The large discount to fair value meets weak quality (40/100). That raises the risk this is a value trap rather than a bargain.
- The price is below even our cautious bear case (82,239 KRW). The market is more pessimistic than our downside scenario.
- A fairly wide model range (82,239 KRW to 180,483 KRW) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis
Samyang Cor (145990) currently trades at 45,200 KRW, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is 131,361 KRW, implying the stock looks roughly 190.6% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 40/100 (below-average quality), in the Consumer Defensive 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, Samyang Cor generated revenue of 2.6T KRW at a net margin of -12.4%. Revenue declined 1.9% year over year. It earns a return on equity of -15.7%. Net debt stands at 630B KRW. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026
Our scenario range runs from 82,239 KRW (bear case) to 180,483 KRW (bull case); at 45,200 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 21% below its 52-week high and 10% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Defensive peers we cover trades at -14% fair-value upside, at 191%, 145990 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 15 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models (175,790 KRW) versus Dividend Discount (34,301 KRW). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
