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 FY2026 FY2025
Revenue Reported revenue HK$24.40B HK$23.51B
Net income Reported net income HK$3.84B HK$4.34B
Total assets Year-end reported balance HK$28.60B HK$27.21B
Shareholders’ equity Year-end reported balance HK$19.90B HK$17.75B
Net margin Net income ÷ revenue 15.73% 18.44%
Asset turnover Revenue ÷ total assets 0.8531x 0.8640x
Equity multiplier Total assets ÷ shareholders’ equity 1.4376x 1.5333x
ROE Net margin × asset turnover × equity multiplier 19.29% 24.43%

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$24.40B
Prior annual revenue HK$23.51B
EBIT HK$5.05B
Tax rate 22.71%
NOPAT = EBIT × (1 − tax rate) HK$3.90B
Forecast start-growth basis 3.79%
Forecast policy latest reported annual revenue growth, bounded to -10.00% / 15.00%

Step 2 — Calculate FCFF

Current FCFF building block Value
NOPAT HK$3.90B
Add: depreciation & amortisation HK$851.38M
Less: capital expenditure -HK$1.01B
Less/(add): working-capital cash-flow movement HK$188.02M
Current unlevered FCFF HK$3.93B

Explicit FCFF forecast

Forecast year Revenue growth NOPAT D&A Capex Change in NWC FCFF Present value
1 3.79% HK$4.05B HK$883.61M -HK$1.05B HK$195.14M HK$4.08B HK$3.96B
2 3.46% HK$4.19B HK$914.22M -HK$1.04B HK$201.90M HK$4.26B HK$3.91B
3 3.14% HK$4.32B HK$942.95M -HK$1.03B HK$208.25M HK$4.44B HK$3.84B
4 2.82% HK$4.44B HK$969.55M -HK$1.01B HK$214.12M HK$4.61B HK$3.76B
5 2.50% HK$4.56B HK$993.79M -HK$993.79M HK$219.47M HK$4.77B HK$3.68B

Step 3 — Determine the Discount Rate (WACC)

WACC input Value
Risk-free rate 4.71%
Equity risk premium assumption 5.50%
Beta 0.28
Cost of equity 6.26%
Pre-tax cost of debt 2.69%
WACC 5.98%
WACC validation requires assumption review

Step 4 — Estimate Terminal Value

Terminal-value input Value
Perpetuity growth rate 2.50%
Terminal value HK$140.56B
Implied terminal EV / EBITDA 20.41x
Terminal value as % of enterprise value 84.59%

Step 5 — Discount Cash Flows to Enterprise Value

Enterprise-value component Value
Present value of explicit FCFF HK$19.15B
Present value of terminal value HK$105.12B
Indicated enterprise value HK$124.28B
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$124.28B
Less: gross interest-bearing debt HK$2.81B
Add: cash and equivalents HK$11.38B
Add: affiliate investments HK$0.00
Less: minority interests HK$1.62M
Indicated common equity value HK$132.85B

Step 7 — Calculate Indicative Value Per Share

Per-share output Value
Shares used 11,803,067,000.00
Share-count basis reported diluted weighted-average shares
Current market price HK$3.30
DCF indicative value per share HK$11.26
Indicative value vs. market price 241.07%

Data lineage: Yahoo Finance public market and reported-statement data; retrieval timestamp: 2026-08-18 16:11:56.261089 UTC; latest reported fiscal period: 2026-03-31 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

Adjusted R² 0.10 0.09
Annualised residual volatility 26.52% 26.49%

Profitability (RMW) NM -0.00 (-0.00)
Investment (CMA) NM -0.23 (-0.67)

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.
