What Wiselink does

Taiwan zipper manufacturer (formerly Max Zipper) making nylon, plastic and metal zippers for apparel and bags.

Sells zippers to garment, bag and sports-goods makers in large volume at prices that follow nylon, polyester and metal costs plus labour, so competition among zipper makers keeps margins thin. Designs and finishes help it win a place on brands' approved-supplier lists.

Is Wiselink expensive compared with its peers?
On ev / sales it trades at 12.3× against a peer median of 1.9×, most expensive of 20 in its peer set. For today's price to make sense, revenue must grow about 10% a year for seven years (Req g). Recent delivered growth is +23%, so the hurdle is -13 pp: the price already allows for a slowdown.
How has Wiselink stock performed?
Over six months to 6 Nov 2026 the shares returned -19.1% against +3.4% for the median peer; over one year -28.9%.

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.
