How to read this chart
60‑month range 28.84 TWD – 175.50 TWD · fair‑value band 47.32 TWD – 79.30 TWD · the 116.00 TWD price screens above the 64.25 TWD fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). Dashed = 300-day average. As of Jul 20, 2026.
Analysis
United Microelectronics Corporation (2303) currently trades at 116.00 TWD, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is 64.25 TWD, implying the stock looks roughly 44.6% overvalued today. We read business quality at 63/100 (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, United Microelectronics Corporation generated revenue of 241B TWD at a net margin of 20.8%. Revenue grew 5.5% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 12.5%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of 50.9B TWD. Fundamentals as of Jul 20, 2026
Our scenario range runs from 47.32 TWD (bear case) to 79.30 TWD (bull case); at 116.00 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 25% below its 52-week high and 189% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at -62% fair-value upside, at -45%, 2303 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 25 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models (74.64 TWD) versus Asset-Based (20.28 TWD). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
