From 12 valuation models · updated 17 days ago

Share price +12.5% over the past month.

Below-average quality, screening 159% undervalued on our models.

What matters now

  • The large discount to fair value meets weak quality (44/100). That raises the risk this is a value trap rather than a bargain.
  • The price is below even our cautious bear case ($24.30). The market is more pessimistic than our downside scenario.
  • The model range is unusually wide ($24.30 to $95.67). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.

Analysis

HUTCHMED (China) Limited (HCM) currently trades at $12.51, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $32.40, implying the stock looks roughly 159.0% undervalued today. The Quality Score stands at 44/100 (below-average quality), in the Healthcare 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: medium), always confirm before acting.

Over the trailing twelve months, HUTCHMED (China) Limited generated revenue of $549M at a net margin of 83.3%. Revenue declined 16.5% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 45.3%. Net debt stands at $26.6M. Fundamentals as of Jul 24, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $24.30 (bear case) to $95.67 (bull case); at $12.51, 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. Analysts expect earnings well below the last reported figure (earnings in transition, for example expiring patents or contracts); a fair value that looks fair on trailing earnings may then be too optimistic. The share trades about 36% below its 52-week high and 25% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Healthcare peers we cover trades at -49% fair-value upside, at 159%, HCM 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.
