Analysis

Hwang Chang General Contractor Co (2543) currently trades at 39.25 TWD, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is 37.19 TWD, implying the stock looks roughly 5.3% fairly valued today. The Quality Score stands at 20/100 (below-average quality), in the Industrials 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, Hwang Chang General Contractor Co generated revenue of 12.3B TWD at a net margin of 10.6%. Revenue grew 21.3% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 13.5%. Net debt stands at 3.0B TWD. Fundamentals as of Jul 23, 2026

Our scenario range runs from 26.04 TWD (bear case) to 55.90 TWD (bull case); at 39.25 TWD, the current price sits within 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 56% below its 52-week high and 6% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at -45% fair-value upside, at -5%, 2543 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.
