Analysis

China National Software & Service Company (600536) currently trades at ¥32.17, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ¥7.94, implying the stock looks roughly 75.3% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 37/100 (below-average quality), in the Technology 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, China National Software & Service Company generated revenue of 5.2B CNY at a net margin of -0.7%. Revenue grew 10.8% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 4.8%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of 1.5B CNY. Fundamentals as of Aug 9, 2026

Our scenario range runs from ¥7.42 (bear case) to ¥9.33 (bull case); at ¥32.17, 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 43% below its 52-week high and 13% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at -27% fair-value upside, at -75%, 600536 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.
