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$11.55B HK$8.42B
Net income Reported net income HK$1.45B HK$686.43M
Total assets Year-end reported balance HK$53.57B HK$46.87B
Shareholders’ equity Year-end reported balance HK$21.18B HK$18.86B
Net margin Net income ÷ revenue 12.56% 8.15%
Asset turnover Revenue ÷ total assets 0.2156x 0.1797x
Equity multiplier Total assets ÷ shareholders’ equity 2.5287x 2.4848x
ROE Net margin × asset turnover × equity multiplier 6.85% 3.64%

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$11.55B
Prior annual revenue HK$8.42B
EBIT HK$2.68B
Tax rate 16.94%
NOPAT = EBIT × (1 − tax rate) HK$2.22B
Forecast start-growth basis 15.00%
Forecast policy latest reported annual revenue growth, bounded to -10.00% / 15.00%

Step 2 — Calculate FCFF

Current FCFF building block Value
NOPAT HK$2.22B
Add: depreciation & amortisation HK$1.35B
Less: capital expenditure -HK$2.07B
Less/(add): working-capital cash-flow movement -HK$1.32B
Current unlevered FCFF HK$178.34M

Explicit FCFF forecast

Forecast year Revenue growth NOPAT D&A Capex Change in NWC FCFF Present value
1 15.00% HK$2.56B HK$1.55B -HK$2.38B -HK$1.52B HK$205.09M HK$197.17M
2 11.88% HK$2.86B HK$1.74B -HK$2.43B -HK$1.70B HK$461.31M HK$409.92M
3 8.75% HK$3.11B HK$1.89B -HK$2.39B -HK$1.85B HK$753.82M HK$619.14M
4 5.62% HK$3.29B HK$1.99B -HK$2.26B -HK$1.96B HK$1.06B HK$806.63M
5 2.50% HK$3.37B HK$2.04B -HK$2.04B -HK$2.01B HK$1.36B HK$955.75M

Step 3 — Determine the Discount Rate (WACC)

WACC input Value
Risk-free rate 4.71%
Equity risk premium assumption 5.50%
Beta 0.90
Cost of equity 9.67%
Pre-tax cost of debt 2.37%
WACC 8.19%
WACC validation within standard range

Step 4 — Estimate Terminal Value

Terminal-value input Value
Perpetuity growth rate 2.50%
Terminal value HK$24.53B
Implied terminal EV / EBITDA 4.02x
Terminal value as % of enterprise value 84.70%

Step 5 — Discount Cash Flows to Enterprise Value

Enterprise-value component Value
Present value of explicit FCFF HK$2.99B
Present value of terminal value HK$16.55B
Indicated enterprise value HK$19.54B
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$19.54B
Less: gross interest-bearing debt HK$20.05B
Add: cash and equivalents HK$3.59B
Add: affiliate investments HK$0.00
Less: minority interests HK$4.01B
Indicated common equity value -HK$936.14M

Step 7 — Calculate Indicative Value Per Share

Per-share output Value
Shares used 3,361,639,000.00
Share-count basis reported diluted weighted-average shares
Current market price HK$23.74
DCF indicative value per share -HK$0.28
Indicative value vs. market price -101.17%

Data lineage: Yahoo Finance public market and reported-statement data; retrieval timestamp: 2026-08-18 16:55:03.367673 UTC; latest reported fiscal period: 2024-12-31 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 -41.62% -40.71%
Adjusted R² 0.32 0.37
Annualised residual volatility 45.44% 43.71%
Factor loading (t-statistic) FF3 FF5
Market excess return (Mkt-RF) 2.21 (8.52) 1.90 (7.06)
Size (SMB) 1.75 (4.62) 1.10 (2.38)
Value (HML) 1.50 (4.18) 2.13 (5.52)
Profitability (RMW) NM 1.22 (2.47)
Investment (CMA) NM -1.72 (-3.11)

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.
