Analysis

Yang Ming Marine Transport Corporation (2609) currently trades at 50.50 TWD, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is 33.65 TWD, implying the stock looks roughly 33.4% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 48/100 (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: high).

Over the trailing twelve months, Yang Ming Marine Transport Corporation generated revenue of 157B TWD at a net margin of 6.9%. Revenue declined 15.1% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 3.2%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of 86.8B TWD. Fundamentals as of Jul 13, 2026

Our scenario range runs from 26.20 TWD (bear case) to 39.89 TWD (bull case); at 50.50 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 34% below its 52-week high and 7% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at 67% fair-value upside, at -33%, 2609 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.
