Estimated Discount To Fair Value: 25.2%
Guangdong Naruida Technology's stock appears undervalued, trading at CN¥38.98, below its estimated fair value of CN¥52.1. The company's earnings have grown significantly, with a 120.7% increase over the past year and forecasts suggesting continued robust growth at 58.3% annually, outpacing the broader Chinese market. Recent earnings reports show strong performance with net income rising to CN¥73.16 million from CN¥26.01 million year-on-year, supporting its potential as an undervalued opportunity based on cash flows.

Operations: The company's revenue segments consist of NT$16.49 billion from foreign sales and manufacturing, and NT$11.03 billion from domestic sales and manufacturing.
Estimated Discount To Fair Value: 42.7%
Taiwan Union Technology is trading at NT$498, significantly below its fair value estimate of NT$869.08, making it a strong candidate for undervaluation based on cash flows. The company reported robust earnings growth of 32.3% over the past year and forecasts suggest annual revenue growth of 24.7%, surpassing the Taiwanese market's average. Despite recent executive changes, its earnings are expected to grow significantly by 37.3% annually over the next three years, highlighting its potential as an undervalued investment opportunity in Asia.
Overview: HD Renewable Energy Co., Ltd. focuses on developing solar power generation systems, engineering construction, and maintenance services in Taiwan with a market cap of NT$15.68 billion.

Estimated Discount To Fair Value: 48.3%
HD Renewable Energy is trading at NT$111, well below its fair value of NT$214.64, presenting a significant undervaluation based on cash flows. Despite recent declines in sales and net income, analysts forecast robust earnings growth of 76.4% annually, outpacing the Taiwanese market's average. However, profit margins have decreased from last year and operating cash flow inadequately covers debt and dividends, highlighting potential financial challenges despite the stock's discounted valuation.
