Analysis
YC Corporation (232140) currently trades at 9,200 KRW, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is 4,878 KRW, implying the stock looks roughly 47.0% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 62/100 (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: medium).
Over the trailing twelve months, YC Corporation generated revenue of 267B KRW at a net margin of 8.3%. Revenue declined 14.5% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 7.9%. Net debt stands at 8.0B KRW. Fundamentals as of Jul 22, 2026
Our scenario range runs from 3,634 KRW (bear case) to 6,122 KRW (bull case); at 9,200 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 62% below its 52-week high, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at -75% fair-value upside, at -47%, 232140 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 22 models by family
Widest divergence: Growth Earnings (4,939 KRW) versus Earnings-Based (1,956 KRW). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
