Share price −2.6% over the past month.

A solid business, screening 118% undervalued on our models.

What matters now

  • The price is below even our cautious bear case (31.17 TWD). The market is more pessimistic than our downside scenario.
  • Solid quality (64/100) at a price below fair value, the discount is the argument here, not the business quality.
  • A fairly wide model range (31.17 TWD to 60.83 TWD) leaves room in how you read the outcome.
  • As a real-estate business, asset- and dividend-based methods carry more weight here than a standard DCF.

Analysis

Cathay Real Estate Development Co (2501) currently trades at 22.05 TWD, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is 48.12 TWD, implying the stock looks roughly 118.2% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 64/100 (solid quality), in the Real Estate 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: high), always confirm before acting.

Over the trailing twelve months, Cathay Real Estate Development Co generated revenue of 30.3B TWD at a net margin of 14.8%. Revenue grew 116.4% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 14.7%. Net debt stands at 32.2B TWD. Fundamentals as of Jul 23, 2026

Our scenario range runs from 31.17 TWD (bear case) to 60.83 TWD (bull case); at 22.05 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 19% below its 52-week high and 20% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Real Estate peers we cover trades at 32% fair-value upside, at 118%, 2501 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.
