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$969.81M HK$866.67M
Net income Reported net income HK$11.85M HK$-93.46M
Total assets Year-end reported balance HK$872.31M HK$793.84M
Shareholders’ equity Year-end reported balance HK$226.37M HK$214.52M
Net margin Net income ÷ revenue 1.22% -10.78%
Asset turnover Revenue ÷ total assets 1.1118x 1.0917x
Equity multiplier Total assets ÷ shareholders’ equity 3.8535x 3.7006x
ROE Net margin × asset turnover × equity multiplier 5.23% -43.57%

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$969.81M
Prior annual revenue HK$866.67M
EBIT HK$30.60M
Tax rate 7.59%
NOPAT = EBIT × (1 − tax rate) HK$28.28M
Forecast start-growth basis 11.90%
Forecast policy latest reported annual revenue growth, bounded to -10.00% / 15.00%

Step 2 — Calculate FCFF

Current FCFF building block Value
NOPAT HK$28.28M
Add: depreciation & amortisation HK$30.71M
Less: capital expenditure -HK$86.38M
Less/(add): working-capital cash-flow movement -HK$16.90M
Current unlevered FCFF -HK$44.29M

Explicit FCFF forecast

Forecast year Revenue growth NOPAT D&A Capex Change in NWC FCFF Present value
1 11.90% HK$31.64M HK$34.37M -HK$96.66M -HK$18.91M -HK$49.56M -HK$48.26M
2 9.55% HK$34.66M HK$37.65M -HK$88.83M -HK$20.71M -HK$37.23M -HK$34.37M
3 7.20% HK$37.16M HK$40.36M -HK$76.94M -HK$22.20M -HK$21.62M -HK$18.93M
4 4.85% HK$38.96M HK$42.32M -HK$61.50M -HK$23.28M -HK$3.50M -HK$2.90M
5 2.50% HK$39.93M HK$43.38M -HK$43.38M -HK$23.86M HK$16.07M HK$12.65M

Step 3 — Determine the Discount Rate (WACC)

WACC input Value
Risk-free rate 4.71%
Equity risk premium assumption 5.50%
Beta 0.41
Cost of equity 7.00%
Pre-tax cost of debt 3.59%
WACC 5.47%
WACC validation requires assumption review

Step 4 — Estimate Terminal Value

Terminal-value input Value
Perpetuity growth rate 2.50%
Terminal value HK$555.23M
Implied terminal EV / EBITDA 6.41x
Terminal value as % of enterprise value 127.51%

Step 5 — Discount Cash Flows to Enterprise Value

Enterprise-value component Value
Present value of explicit FCFF -HK$91.81M
Present value of terminal value HK$425.50M
Indicated enterprise value HK$333.69M
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$333.69M
Less: gross interest-bearing debt HK$533.36M
Add: cash and equivalents HK$76.80M
Add: affiliate investments HK$0.00
Less: minority interests HK$0.00
Indicated common equity value -HK$122.87M

Step 7 — Calculate Indicative Value Per Share

Per-share output Value
Shares used 239,250,568.00
Share-count basis reported shares outstanding; option/RSU dilution data not separately available
Current market price HK$3.13
DCF indicative value per share -HK$0.51
Indicative value vs. market price -116.41%

Data lineage: Yahoo Finance public market and reported-statement data; retrieval timestamp: 2026-08-18 16:51:37.787376 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

Profitability (RMW) NM 0.82 (1.00)
Investment (CMA) NM 0.51 (0.55)

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.
