Share price +5.0% over the past month.

Below-average quality, and screening another 49% overvalued on our models.

What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($16.35). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
  • The model range is unusually wide ($6.15 to $16.35). The outcome hinges heavily on assumptions, so read the point estimate with caution.
  • Solid but not exceptional quality (46/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.

Analysis

Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd (KWHIF) currently trades at $17.99, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $9.09, implying the stock looks roughly 49.5% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 46/100 (below-average quality), in the Industrials 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, Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd generated revenue of $2.3T at a net margin of 4.7%. Revenue grew 15.4% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 13.5%. Net debt stands at $750B. Fundamentals as of Jul 18, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $6.15 (bear case) to $16.35 (bull case); at $17.99, 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. For context, the median of 10 Industrials peers we cover trades at -48% fair-value upside, at -49%, KWHIF 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.
