Analysis

ChipMOS TECHNOLOGIES INC. (IMOS) currently trades at $52.54, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $17.70, implying the stock looks roughly 66.3% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 53/100 (solid quality), in the Technology 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, ChipMOS TECHNOLOGIES INC. generated revenue of $25.3B at a net margin of 3.3%. Revenue grew 25.4% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 3.3%. Net debt stands at $1.5B. Fundamentals as of Jul 18, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $13.28 (bear case) to $22.12 (bull case); at $52.54, 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 26% below its 52-week high and 249% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at -67% fair-value upside, at -66%, IMOS 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.
