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$2,781.75B HK$3,073.11B
Net income Reported net income HK$32.48B HK$48.94B
Total assets Year-end reported balance HK$2,153.49B HK$2,081.44B
Shareholders’ equity Year-end reported balance HK$827.46B HK$815.82B
Net margin Net income ÷ revenue 1.17% 1.59%
Asset turnover Revenue ÷ total assets 1.2917x 1.4764x
Equity multiplier Total assets ÷ shareholders’ equity 2.6025x 2.5514x
ROE Net margin × asset turnover × equity multiplier 3.92% 6.00%

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$2,781.75B
Prior annual revenue HK$3,073.11B
EBIT HK$62.16B
Tax rate 18.14%
NOPAT = EBIT × (1 − tax rate) HK$50.88B
Forecast start-growth basis -9.48%
Forecast policy latest reported annual revenue growth, bounded to -10.00% / 15.00%

Step 2 — Calculate FCFF

Current FCFF building block Value
NOPAT HK$50.88B
Add: depreciation & amortisation HK$127.17B
Less: capital expenditure -HK$133.62B
Less/(add): working-capital cash-flow movement -HK$11.75B
Current unlevered FCFF HK$32.68B

Explicit FCFF forecast

Forecast year Revenue growth NOPAT D&A Capex Change in NWC FCFF Present value
1 -9.48% HK$46.06B HK$115.11B -HK$120.96B -HK$10.64B HK$29.58B HK$28.76B
2 -6.49% HK$43.07B HK$107.65B -HK$111.75B -HK$9.95B HK$29.03B HK$26.69B
3 -3.49% HK$41.57B HK$103.89B -HK$106.53B -HK$9.60B HK$29.33B HK$25.51B
4 -0.50% HK$41.36B HK$103.38B -HK$104.69B -HK$9.55B HK$30.50B HK$25.08B
5 2.50% HK$42.40B HK$105.96B -HK$105.96B -HK$9.79B HK$32.60B HK$25.36B

Step 3 — Determine the Discount Rate (WACC)

WACC input Value
Risk-free rate 4.71%
Equity risk premium assumption 5.50%
Beta 0.70
Cost of equity 8.55%
Pre-tax cost of debt 3.66%
WACC 5.75%
WACC validation requires assumption review

Step 4 — Estimate Terminal Value

Terminal-value input Value
Perpetuity growth rate 2.50%
Terminal value HK$1,029.59B
Implied terminal EV / EBITDA 6.53x
Terminal value as % of enterprise value 85.56%

Step 5 — Discount Cash Flows to Enterprise Value

Enterprise-value component Value
Present value of explicit FCFF HK$131.40B
Present value of terminal value HK$778.66B
Indicated enterprise value HK$910.06B
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$910.06B
Less: gross interest-bearing debt HK$531.01B
Add: cash and equivalents HK$156.22B
Add: affiliate investments HK$0.00
Less: minority interests HK$159.41B
Indicated common equity value HK$375.86B

Step 7 — Calculate Indicative Value Per Share

Per-share output Value
Shares used 121,187,000,000.00
Share-count basis reported diluted weighted-average shares
Current market price HK$4.31
DCF indicative value per share HK$3.10
Indicative value vs. market price -28.04%

Educational screen Result
Buffett-inspired cash-quality checks 4/4 evidenced checks
Lynch-inspired balance-and-growth checks 4/4 evidenced checks

Data lineage: Yahoo Finance public market and reported-statement data; retrieval timestamp: 2026-08-18 16:22:29.384165 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.

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 -19.48% -24.00%
Adjusted R² 0.27 0.30
Annualised residual volatility 19.96% 19.41%
Factor loading (t-statistic) FF3 FF5
Market excess return (Mkt-RF) 0.94 (8.25) 1.00 (8.31)

Profitability (RMW) NM 0.71 (3.26)
Investment (CMA) NM 0.29 (1.19)

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.
