A solid business, but screening 20% overvalued on our models.

What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (33,246 KRW). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
  • Solid but not exceptional quality (63/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
  • A fairly wide model range (17,167 KRW to 33,246 KRW) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis

NHN Corporation (181710) currently trades at 41,800 KRW, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is 33,246 KRW, implying the stock looks roughly 20.5% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 63/100 (solid quality), in the Communication Services 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: medium).

Over the trailing twelve months, NHN Corporation generated revenue of 2.6T KRW at a net margin of 2.3%. Revenue grew 11.9% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 4.7%. Fundamentals as of Jul 24, 2026

Our scenario range runs from 17,167 KRW (bear case) to 33,246 KRW (bull case); at 41,800 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 36% below its 52-week high and 72% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Communication Services peers we cover trades at -19% fair-value upside, at -20%, 181710 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.
