From 7 valuation models · updated 4 days ago

Share price −5.7% over the past month.

Below-average quality, screening 154% undervalued on our models.

What matters now

  • The large discount to fair value meets weak quality (43/100). That raises the risk this is a value trap rather than a bargain.
  • The price is below even our cautious bear case (0.1412 SGD). The market is more pessimistic than our downside scenario.
  • The large gap to fair value rests on thin data (low evidence): fewer applicable models and a shorter history. Read it with extra caution.

Analysis

DARCO WATER TECHNOLOGIES LTD (BLR) currently trades at 0.0660 SGD, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is 0.1676 SGD, implying the stock looks roughly 153.9% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 43/100 (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: low), always confirm before acting.

Over the trailing twelve months, DARCO WATER TECHNOLOGIES LTD generated revenue of 51.4M SGD at a net margin of -9.4%. Revenue declined 10.1% year over year. It earns a return on equity of -21.7%. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026

Our scenario range runs from 0.1412 SGD (bear case) to 0.1874 SGD (bull case); at 0.0660 SGD, 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 40% below its 52-week high, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at -31% fair-value upside, at 154%, BLR 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.

Model Bear Bear = the cautious scenario: the same model computed with conservative anchors (lower growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bull it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target.BaseBull Bull = the optimistic scenario: the same model computed with favourable anchors (higher growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bear it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target. Evidence
