Most Popular Narrative: 16.9% Undervalued
Against Fujitsu’s last close at ¥3,841, the most widely followed narrative anchors fair value at ¥4,622. That gap is built on detailed growth and margin assumptions rather than short term share price moves.
Substantial growth in modernization and Uvance businesses (modernization revenue up 44% YoY, Uvance revenue up 52% YoY, Uvance now 29% of segment sales), reflects successful transition away from legacy hardware towards high-margin, recurring cloud, consulting, and advanced IT services, which should structurally lift net margins.
Want to see what sits behind that shift from hardware to recurring IT services? The story leans on steadier revenue growth, firmer margins, and a richer earnings multiple.
Result: Fair Value of ¥4,622 (UNDERVALUED)
