Analysis

Malayan Cement Berhad, an investment holding company, (3794) currently trades at 6.42 MYR, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is 8.17 MYR, implying the stock looks roughly 27.3% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 59/100 (solid quality), in the Basic Materials 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, Malayan Cement Berhad, an investment holding company, generated revenue of 4.8B MYR at a net margin of 17.6%. Revenue grew 9.5% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 12.1%. Net debt stands at 2.6B MYR. Fundamentals as of Jul 12, 2026

Our scenario range runs from 4.74 MYR (bear case) to 10.21 MYR (bull case); at 6.42 MYR, 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 26% below its 52-week high and 39% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Basic Materials peers we cover trades at -59% fair-value upside, at 27%, 3794 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.
