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$186.84M HK$187.28M
Net income Reported net income HK$22.58M HK$28.05M
Total assets Year-end reported balance HK$177.98M HK$168.38M
Shareholders’ equity Year-end reported balance HK$148.73M HK$136.15M
Net margin Net income ÷ revenue 12.08% 14.98%
Asset turnover Revenue ÷ total assets 1.0497x 1.1122x
Equity multiplier Total assets ÷ shareholders’ equity 1.1967x 1.2367x
ROE Net margin × asset turnover × equity multiplier 15.18% 20.61%

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$186.84M
Prior annual revenue HK$187.28M
EBIT HK$26.97M
Tax rate 15.65%
NOPAT = EBIT × (1 − tax rate) HK$22.75M
Forecast start-growth basis -0.24%
Forecast policy latest reported annual revenue growth, bounded to -10.00% / 15.00%

Step 2 — Calculate FCFF

Current FCFF building block Value
NOPAT HK$22.75M
Add: depreciation & amortisation HK$4.66M
Less: capital expenditure -HK$414,000.00
Less/(add): working-capital cash-flow movement -HK$6.58M
Current unlevered FCFF HK$20.42M

Explicit FCFF forecast

Forecast year Revenue growth NOPAT D&A Capex Change in NWC FCFF Present value
1 -0.24% HK$22.70M HK$4.65M -HK$413,020.70 -HK$6.56M HK$20.37M HK$19.86M
2 0.45% HK$22.80M HK$4.67M -HK$1.48M -HK$6.59M HK$19.40M HK$17.98M
3 1.13% HK$23.05M HK$4.72M -HK$2.57M -HK$6.67M HK$18.54M HK$16.34M
4 1.82% HK$23.47M HK$4.81M -HK$3.71M -HK$6.79M HK$17.78M HK$14.90M
5 2.50% HK$24.06M HK$4.93M -HK$4.93M -HK$6.96M HK$17.10M HK$13.63M

Step 3 — Determine the Discount Rate (WACC)

WACC input Value
Risk-free rate 4.71%
Equity risk premium assumption 5.50%
Beta 0.09
Cost of equity 5.18%
Pre-tax cost of debt 5.66%
WACC 5.18%
WACC validation requires assumption review

Step 4 — Estimate Terminal Value

Terminal-value input Value
Perpetuity growth rate 2.50%
Terminal value HK$654.90M
Implied terminal EV / EBITDA 19.58x
Terminal value as % of enterprise value 86.02%

Step 5 — Discount Cash Flows to Enterprise Value

Enterprise-value component Value
Present value of explicit FCFF HK$82.72M
Present value of terminal value HK$508.83M
Indicated enterprise value HK$591.55M
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$591.55M
Less: gross interest-bearing debt HK$2.34M
Add: cash and equivalents HK$43.00M
Add: affiliate investments HK$0.00
Less: minority interests HK$0.00
Indicated common equity value HK$632.21M

Step 7 — Calculate Indicative Value Per Share

Per-share output Value
Shares used 800,000,000.00
Share-count basis reported shares outstanding; option/RSU dilution data not separately available
Current market price HK$0.26
DCF indicative value per share HK$0.79
Indicative value vs. market price 209.90%

Model Integrity Checks

Check Result
Perpetuity growth is below the risk-free rate pass
Perpetuity growth is below WACC pass
WACC is within the configured operating-company range review required
Terminal-year FCFF is positive pass
Terminal capex converges to D&A pass
Terminal-value concentration within review band
Implied price differs from spot by more than 30% review required

Data lineage: Yahoo Finance public market and reported-statement data; retrieval timestamp: 2026-08-18 17:17:32.495703 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

Profitability (RMW) NM -0.35 (-1.06)
Investment (CMA) NM 0.38 (1.01)

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.
