What matters now
- The large discount to fair value meets weak quality (37/100). That raises the risk this is a value trap rather than a bargain.
- The price is below even our cautious bear case (¥9.89). The market is more pessimistic than our downside scenario.
- A fairly wide model range (¥9.89 to ¥18.51) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis
China Eastern Airlines Corporation (600115) currently trades at ¥3.74, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ¥14.20, implying the stock looks roughly 279.7% undervalued today. We read business quality at 37/100 (below-average quality), in the Industrials 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, China Eastern Airlines Corporation generated revenue of 144B CNY at a net margin of 0.7%. Revenue grew 10.9% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 2.2%. Net debt stands at 67.2B CNY. Fundamentals as of Jul 11, 2026
Our scenario range runs from ¥9.89 (bear case) to ¥18.51 (bull case); at ¥3.74, 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 42% below its 52-week high, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at 40% fair-value upside, at 280%, 600115 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.
All 13 models by family
Widest divergence: Multiples (¥15.20) versus Asset-Based (¥1.15). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
