DuPont Model Analysis

The DuPont model decomposes return on equity (ROE) into three operating and capital-structure drivers:

ROE = Net Margin × Asset Turnover × Equity Multiplier

The comparison uses the latest two comparable annual periods available for the issuer, with reported statement amounts shown in HK$. Revenue and net income are income-statement flows; total assets and shareholders’ equity are year-end balance-sheet figures. This is a simplified year-end-balance DuPont comparison rather than an average-balance ROE calculation.

DuPont component Calculation FY2025 FY2024
Revenue Reported revenue HK$6.91B HK$6.77B
Net income Reported net income HK$6.24B HK$6.12B
Total assets Year-end reported balance HK$98.33B HK$94.08B
Shareholders’ equity Year-end reported balance HK$90.72B HK$87.08B
Net margin Net income ÷ revenue 90.21% 90.33%
Asset turnover Revenue ÷ total assets 0.0703x 0.0720x
Equity multiplier Total assets ÷ shareholders’ equity 1.0838x 1.0804x
ROE Net margin × asset turnover × equity multiplier 6.87% 7.03%

Source: Yahoo Finance annual statements. Values are based on the two latest comparable annual periods returned by the source; fiscal period labels use the statement period-end year.

2.5 FCFF DCF Valuation

Valuation basis: This research model follows a five-year, unlevered FCFF DCF. It starts from reported annual operating inputs, forecasts revenue and operating cash conversion under an explicit mechanical policy, discounts FCFF at WACC, applies a Gordon-growth terminal value, and bridges enterprise value to an indicative common-equity value per share. It is an analytical estimate rather than a recommendation or personalised target price.

Step 1 — Forecast Operating Profit and NOPAT

Reported operating input Value
Revenue HK$6.91B
Prior annual revenue HK$6.77B
EBIT HK$6.68B
Tax rate 3.38%
NOPAT = EBIT × (1 − tax rate) HK$6.46B
Forecast start-growth basis 2.05%
Forecast policy latest reported annual revenue growth, bounded to -10.00% / 15.00%

Step 2 — Calculate FCFF

Current FCFF building block Value
NOPAT HK$6.46B
Add: depreciation & amortisation HK$4.00M
Less: capital expenditure -HK$1.00M
Less/(add): working-capital cash-flow movement HK$734.00M
Current unlevered FCFF HK$7.19B

Explicit FCFF forecast

Forecast year Revenue growth NOPAT D&A Capex Change in NWC FCFF Present value
1 2.05% HK$6.59B HK$4.08M -HK$1.02M HK$749.06M HK$7.34B HK$7.06B
2 2.16% HK$6.73B HK$4.17M -HK$1.82M HK$765.27M HK$7.50B HK$6.67B
3 2.28% HK$6.88B HK$4.27M -HK$2.67M HK$782.69M HK$7.67B HK$6.30B
4 2.39% HK$7.05B HK$4.37M -HK$3.55M HK$801.38M HK$7.85B HK$5.96B
5 2.50% HK$7.23B HK$4.48M -HK$4.48M HK$821.41M HK$8.05B HK$5.65B

Step 3 — Determine the Discount Rate (WACC)

WACC input Value
Risk-free rate 4.71%
Equity risk premium assumption 5.50%
Beta 0.63
Cost of equity 8.19%
Pre-tax cost of debt 7.82%
WACC 8.17%
WACC validation within standard range

Step 4 — Estimate Terminal Value

Terminal-value input Value
Perpetuity growth rate 2.50%
Terminal value HK$145.36B
Implied terminal EV / EBITDA 19.43x
Terminal value as % of enterprise value 75.62%

Step 5 — Discount Cash Flows to Enterprise Value

Enterprise-value component Value
Present value of explicit FCFF HK$31.64B
Present value of terminal value HK$98.13B
Indicated enterprise value HK$129.77B
Discounting convention mid-year for explicit FCFF; terminal value discounted at year-end five

Step 6 — Convert Enterprise Value to Equity Value

Equity bridge Value
Indicated enterprise value HK$129.77B
Less: gross interest-bearing debt HK$3.32B
Add: cash and equivalents HK$2.53B
Add: affiliate investments HK$0.00
Less: minority interests HK$0.00
Indicated common equity value HK$128.98B

Step 7 — Calculate Indicative Value Per Share

Per-share output Value
Shares used 2,131,105,154.00
Share-count basis reported shares outstanding; option/RSU dilution data not separately available
Current market price HK$60.65
DCF indicative value per share HK$60.52
Indicative value vs. market price -0.21%

Data lineage: Yahoo Finance public market and reported-statement data; retrieval timestamp: 2026-08-18 16:04:03.872433 UTC; latest reported fiscal period: 2025-12-31 00:00:00. Default assumptions: five-year forecast, mid-year discounting for explicit FCFF, a maximum 2.50% perpetuity-growth rate below both WACC and the risk-free rate, historical operating-ratio persistence, and capex convergence to D&A by year five. No sell-side consensus or management guidance is substituted for reported inputs. This is research and analysis only, not personalized financial advice.

2.7 Quantitative Factor Diagnostics

Model basis: Daily issuer USD excess returns are regressed in-sample using ordinary least squares on matching regional Fama–French factors. FF3 estimates market, size, and value loadings; FF5 adds profitability and investment. Coefficients are descriptive historical exposures, not predictions.

Estimation input Value
Regional factor set Asia Pacific ex Japan
Factor-return currency USD
Issuer-return basis USD adjusted total return
Estimation window 2025-08-20 to 2026-06-30
Aligned daily observations 210
Minimum observation requirement 120
Currency conversion for HK listings HKD adjusted close divided by daily USD/HKD close before simple daily return calculation

Fama–French Three-Factor and Five-Factor Results

Diagnostic FF3 FF5
Annualised alpha 12.59% 15.31%
Adjusted R² 0.15 0.22
Annualised residual volatility 14.70% 14.00%
Factor loading (t-statistic) FF3 FF5
Market excess return (Mkt-RF) 0.50 (5.97) 0.55 (6.37)
Size (SMB) -0.22 (-1.82) -0.17 (-1.17)
Value (HML) 0.34 (2.95) 0.10 (0.80)
Profitability (RMW) NM -0.66 (-4.16)
Investment (CMA) NM 0.30 (1.69)

Definitions: Mkt-RF is the market return less the risk-free rate; SMB is small minus big; HML is high minus low book-to-market; RMW is robust minus weak profitability; CMA is conservative minus aggressive investment. Factor returns are sourced from the Kenneth R. French Data Library; issuer adjusted-return history is sourced from Yahoo Finance. For Hong Kong listings, adjusted HKD prices are converted into USD with daily USD/HKD closes before return calculation to match the USD regional factor basis. This is an in-sample historical regression; coefficients and t-statistics do not establish causation or predict future returns. This is research and analysis only, not personalized financial advice.
