From 2 valuation models · updated today

Fair value updated Aug 10, 2026, revised from ¥8.97 to ¥6.84 (−23.7%) since Jul 25, 2026. Share price −1.5% over the past month.

Below-average quality, and screening another 28% overvalued on our models.

What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (¥8.55). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
  • Weak quality (33/100) and above fair value at the same time, the margin of safety is missing on both counts.
  • For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

Analysis

Zheshang Securities Co (601878) currently trades at ¥9.45, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ¥6.84, implying the stock looks roughly 27.6% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 33/100 (below-average quality), in the Financial Services 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, Zheshang Securities Co generated revenue of 9.4B CNY at a net margin of 27.6%. Revenue grew 39.8% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 7.3%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of 62.6B CNY. Fundamentals as of Aug 10, 2026

Our scenario range runs from ¥5.13 (bear case) to ¥8.55 (bull case); at ¥9.45, 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 25% below its 52-week high and 6% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Financial Services peers we cover trades at 11% fair-value upside, at -28%, 601878 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.
