Analysis

Ningbo Construction Co (601789) currently trades at ¥4.33, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ¥3.25, implying the stock looks roughly 24.9% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 46/100 (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, Ningbo Construction Co generated revenue of 20.3B CNY at a net margin of 1.6%. Revenue declined 18.9% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 5.4%. Net debt stands at 1.5B CNY. Fundamentals as of Aug 10, 2026

Our scenario range runs from ¥2.44 (bear case) to ¥4.06 (bull case); at ¥4.33, 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 46% below its 52-week high, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at -45% fair-value upside, at -25%, 601789 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.

Widest divergence: DCF Models (¥5.31) versus Asset-Based (¥2.02). Highest evidence: Residual Income (76).

How we calculate Fair Value

A separate quality layer scores the fundamentals. Every input is real reported data, nothing guessed.
