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$28.25B | HK$22.73B |
| Net income | Reported net income | HK$11.29B | HK$8.82B |
| Total assets | Year-end reported balance | HK$855.74B | HK$737.47B |
| Shareholders’ equity | Year-end reported balance | HK$147.78B | HK$140.48B |
| Net margin | Net income ÷ revenue | 39.98% | 38.79% |
| Asset turnover | Revenue ÷ total assets | 0.0330x | 0.0308x |
| Equity multiplier | Total assets ÷ shareholders’ equity | 5.7907x | 5.2496x |
| ROE | Net margin × asset turnover × equity multiplier | 7.64% | 6.28% |

2.5 FCFF DCF Valuation
FCFF DCF exception: FCFF DCF is not the primary valuation method for financial institutions or REITs. This post deliberately does not publish a mechanical enterprise value or implied per-share value on an unsuitable basis.
| Available valuation input | Value |
|---|---|
| Last market price | HK$7.43 |
| Market capitalisation | HK$81.24B |
| Revenue | HK$28.25B |
| EBIT | NM |
| Reported free cash flow | -HK$26.36B |
| FCF yield | -32.44% |
| Net debt / EBITDA | NM |

Financial institutions and REITs require sector-specific methods rather than a mechanical FCFF DCF. 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 |
