Oriental Union Chemical Corporation (1710) Fair Value & Analysis
Basic Materials · TW · Market cap 13.6B TWD
Fair value as of: Jul 21, 2026
From 3 valuation models · updated 20 days ago
Share price −11.6% over the past month.
Below-average quality, and screening another 78% overvalued on our models.
What matters now
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (4.42 TWD). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
- Weak quality (32/100) and above fair value at the same time, the margin of safety is missing on both counts.
- The large gap to fair value rests on thin data (low evidence): fewer applicable models and a shorter history. Read it with extra caution.
- A fairly wide model range (2.05 TWD to 4.42 TWD) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis
Oriental Union Chemical Corporation (1710) currently trades at 14.50 TWD, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is 3.14 TWD, implying the stock looks roughly 78.3% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 32/100 (below-average quality), in the Basic Materials 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: low).
Over the trailing twelve months, Oriental Union Chemical Corporation generated revenue of 21.5B TWD at a net margin of -4.3%. Revenue declined 12.8% year over year. It earns a return on equity of -9.1%. Net debt stands at 14.5B TWD. Fundamentals as of Jul 21, 2026
Our scenario range runs from 2.05 TWD (bear case) to 4.42 TWD (bull case); at 14.50 TWD, 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 14% below its 52-week high and 31% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Basic Materials peers we cover trades at -46% fair-value upside, at -78%, 1710 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 3 models by family
