The models behind the number
Each method is weighted by how well its inputs held up for this company.
Intrinsic value from 2-stage discounted cash flows (primary for asset-light / normal businesses); FCFE path
required inputs missing
- Discounted cash flow (2-stage) is the primary model due to its alignment with capital-intensive projects and long-term cash flow generation. EV/EBITDA is used to capture the asset-light and EBITDA-driven nature of the business. Relative PE is used to benchmark against peers in the construction sector.
What was missing
- Lack of forward EPS estimates
- Limited analyst coverage
- Limited peer data for EV/EBITDA

quality 57/100 (about average) → neutral
durable ~21% CAGR (ROCE 13% > hurdle) → premium
capital allocation: rising ROCE funded by strong FCF → premium
financial strength: low leverage (D/E 0.3) → mild premium

sector re-rating: no sector-norm history → not used

Who computed this
A language model (qwen3:8b) selects the valuation method and the judgement inputs for NCC Limited: which models suit the business, the moat, the growth and margin assumptions. It does not produce the number. The fair value itself is computed in Python by a deterministic engine (version 2026.08.1) from those inputs, so the same inputs always give the same result and every figure above can be traced to a source.
Estimated 14 Sept 2026. Re-run as new financials and news arrive.
How we value stocks
We estimate what a business is worth from its own economics: cash flows, returns on capital, and a multiple justified by its quality, rather than from where the share price has been. A fair value estimate is a view, not a verdict, and it is only as good as the inputs listed above.
