What matters now
- The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (¥6.56). The favourable scenario is already priced in.

- For a financial, book-value and earnings-based methods matter more than a cash-flow DCF, which fits banks and insurers poorly.

Analysis
Founder Securities Co (601901) currently trades at ¥7.04, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is ¥5.24, implying the stock looks roughly 25.6% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 53/100 (solid 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: high).
Over the trailing twelve months, Founder Securities Co generated revenue of 10.8B CNY at a net margin of 39.6%. Revenue grew 14.2% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 8.3%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of 52.8B CNY. Fundamentals as of Aug 10, 2026
Our scenario range runs from ¥3.93 (bear case) to ¥6.56 (bull case); at ¥7.04, 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 22% below its 52-week high and 11% 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 -26%, 601901 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 2 models by family
Widest divergence: Multiples (¥5.24) versus Asset-Based (¥4.13). Highest evidence: P/B Multiple (55).
