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 FY2024 FY2023
Revenue Reported revenue HK$640.22M HK$600.60M
Net income Reported net income HK$42.11M HK$38.42M
Total assets Year-end reported balance HK$832.57M HK$792.87M
Shareholders’ equity Year-end reported balance HK$454.94M HK$428.59M
Net margin Net income ÷ revenue 6.58% 6.40%
Asset turnover Revenue ÷ total assets 0.7690x 0.7575x
Equity multiplier Total assets ÷ shareholders’ equity 1.8301x 1.8499x
ROE Net margin × asset turnover × equity multiplier 9.26% 8.97%

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$640.22M
Prior annual revenue HK$600.60M
EBIT HK$52.05M
Tax rate 11.88%
NOPAT = EBIT × (1 − tax rate) HK$45.87M
Forecast start-growth basis 6.60%
Forecast policy latest reported annual revenue growth, bounded to -10.00% / 15.00%

Step 2 — Calculate FCFF

Current FCFF building block Value
NOPAT HK$45.87M
Add: depreciation & amortisation HK$46.37M
Less: capital expenditure -HK$18.53M
Less/(add): working-capital cash-flow movement HK$2.02M
Current unlevered FCFF HK$75.72M

Explicit FCFF forecast

Forecast year Revenue growth NOPAT D&A Capex Change in NWC FCFF Present value
1 6.60% HK$48.89M HK$49.42M -HK$19.75M HK$2.15M HK$80.72M HK$78.72M
2 5.57% HK$51.62M HK$52.18M -HK$28.68M HK$2.27M HK$77.38M HK$71.78M
3 4.55% HK$53.97M HK$54.55M -HK$38.18M HK$2.37M HK$72.72M HK$64.16M
4 3.52% HK$55.87M HK$56.47M -HK$48.00M HK$2.46M HK$66.80M HK$56.06M
5 2.50% HK$57.26M HK$57.89M -HK$57.89M HK$2.52M HK$59.78M HK$47.72M

Step 3 — Determine the Discount Rate (WACC)

WACC input Value
Risk-free rate 4.71%
Equity risk premium assumption 5.50%
Beta 0.21
Cost of equity 5.88%
Pre-tax cost of debt 3.58%
WACC 5.14%
WACC validation requires assumption review

Step 4 — Estimate Terminal Value

Terminal-value input Value
Perpetuity growth rate 2.50%
Terminal value HK$2.32B
Implied terminal EV / EBITDA 18.91x
Terminal value as % of enterprise value 85.03%

Step 5 — Discount Cash Flows to Enterprise Value

Enterprise-value component Value
Present value of explicit FCFF HK$318.44M
Present value of terminal value HK$1.81B
Indicated enterprise value HK$2.13B
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$2.13B
Less: gross interest-bearing debt HK$114.26M
Add: cash and equivalents HK$263.32M
Add: affiliate investments HK$0.00
Less: minority interests HK$0.00
Indicated common equity value HK$2.28B

Step 7 — Calculate Indicative Value Per Share

Per-share output Value
Shares used 212,187,000.00
Share-count basis reported diluted weighted-average shares
Current market price HK$1.44
DCF indicative value per share HK$10.73
Indicative value vs. market price 645.00%

Data lineage: Yahoo Finance public market and reported-statement data; retrieval timestamp: 2026-08-18 16:11:40.889022 UTC; latest reported fiscal period: 2024-06-30 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

Profitability (RMW) NM -0.46 (-1.65)
Investment (CMA) NM 0.75 (2.39)

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.
