Analysis
Hua Eng Wire & Cable Co (1608) currently trades at 35.75 TWD, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is 52.42 TWD, implying the stock looks roughly 46.6% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 57/100 (solid quality), in the Industrials 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, Hua Eng Wire & Cable Co generated revenue of 12.0B TWD at a net margin of 19.5%. Revenue grew 22.2% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 24.5%. Net debt stands at 3.3B TWD. Fundamentals as of Jul 21, 2026
Our scenario range runs from 38.28 TWD (bear case) to 66.78 TWD (bull case); at 35.75 TWD, 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 15% below its 52-week high and 47% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at -48% fair-value upside, at 47%, 1608 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
