The cockpit's measured peer set (industry) also includes Samsung Sdi (006400.KS), Vestas Wind Systems A/S (VWS.CO), Shengyi Technology (600183.SS), Sungrow Power Supply (300274.SZ), Fujikura (5803.T), Prysmian (PRY.MI).
Is NARI Technology expensive compared with its peers?
On forward p/e it trades at 21.7× against a peer median of 20.2×, 8th most expensive of 20 in its peer set. For today's price to make sense, revenue must grow about 2% a year for seven years (Req g). Recent delivered growth is +11%, so the hurdle is -9 pp: the price already allows for a slowdown.
How has NARI Technology stock performed?
Over six months to 6 Nov 2026 the shares returned -8.1% against -26.2% for the median peer; over one year +3.7%.

How these numbers are made. Returns are close-to-close in local currency. Revenue growth and margins are trailing twelve months. Req g is the revenue growth that today's enterprise value requires for seven years at the company's own cost of capital; Delivered g is what it actually grew; the gap is the hurdle (honest precision about ±8 points, so read the ranking more than the decimal). No fair values, price targets or analyst ratings are shown, by design. Method and validation.
