Analysis
Ranhill Utilities Berhad, (5272) currently trades at 2.25 MYR, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is 1.29 MYR, implying the stock looks roughly 42.7% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 61/100 (solid quality), in the Utilities 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, Ranhill Utilities Berhad, generated revenue of 2.2B MYR at a net margin of 2.3%. Revenue grew 19.4% year over year. Net debt stands at 353M MYR. The stock trades on a trailing P/E of 50.0. Fundamentals as of Jul 16, 2026
Our scenario range runs from 0.9700 MYR (bear case) to 1.61 MYR (bull case); at 2.25 MYR, 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 last reported earnings sit well below what analysts expect (earnings in transition, for example after write-downs or an earnings dip); whether the stock is cheap or expensive hinges on the expected recovery actually arriving. Read the fair value with that caveat. The share trades near its 52-week high and 99% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Utilities peers we cover trades at -10% fair-value upside, at -43%, 5272 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.
All 23 models by family
Widest divergence: Growth DCF (6.87 MYR) versus Dividend Discount (0.2500 MYR). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
