    Listen to the news

    KONE Oyj (HLSE:KNEBV) has opened a Digital Experience Centre in Pune, India, where customers can see how its AI, connectivity, and data tools shape elevator and smart building solutions.

    The recent opening of the Pune Digital Experience Centre comes as KONE Oyj’s share price shows short term momentum, with 1 month and 3 month share price returns of 6.69% and 6.73% respectively, even though the year to date share price is still down 13.09% and the 1 year total shareholder return is down 3.44%, while the 3 year total shareholder return of 48.95% points to a longer rebuild in investor confidence.

    KONE Oyj’s recent bounce and improving earnings profile raise a simple tension: Is this the early stage of a re‑rating, or have investors already taken most of the easy upside off the table as current valuation signals suggest?

    Most Popular Narrative: 11% Undervalued

    The most followed narrative on KONE Oyj values the shares at €59.70 per share, which sits above the recent close of €52.96 and frames the recent bounce as only a partial catch up to that implied worth. The gap reflects a view that earnings quality and cash generation support a higher price than the current market is offering.

    The current valuation implies the market is still discounting KONE Oyj, even though guidance calls for mid single digit comparable sales growth, EBIT margins above 12% and planned TK Elevator synergies. Together, these elements support the view that the shares may be undervalued and that the overall narrative on the stock remains positive.

    See why 17 investors see KONE Oyj as 11% undervalued.

    Result: Fair Value of €59.70 (UNDERVALUED)

    Still, KONE Oyj faces pressure from weaker Chinese construction demand and the planned TK Elevator deal, where higher leverage and integration missteps could strain future earnings.

    Another View: What KONE Oyj’s P/E Is Telling You

    The broader narrative points to KONE Oyj trading below an estimated fair value, yet the current P/E of 29.1x is higher than the peer average of 18.7x and above the fair ratio of 28.5x. That richer multiple leans toward valuation risk rather than clear upside. Which signal do you trust more right now?
