Fair Value models

Bear HK$20.14 Fair Value HK$26.79 Bull HK$34.27

Price HK$23.28 · Upside +15.1%

Model ⓘEach model values the company its own way (discounted cash flow, earnings, assets, dividends). The fair value above starts from their evidence-weighted blend, not from a single model. In cyclical trough or peak years, after dilution or a stock split it is adjusted afterwards, so it can sit above or below the models. Based on fiscal year 2025 figures (about 10 months old). Earnings retained since then (HK$1.40 per share) are deliberately not added. Bear ⓘBear = the cautious scenario: the same model computed with conservative anchors (lower growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bull it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target.BaseBull ⓘBull = the optimistic scenario: the same model computed with favourable anchors (higher growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bear it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target. If a model's bull case is above four times its base value, the table shows that limit with a > sign (like the overall Bull above): beyond it no assumption holds. Coverage ⓘCoverage = how well-backed THIS model's estimate is for this stock (0–100): how complete and reliable its input data are, and how well the model fits the company. The final Fair Value is an evidence-weighted blend, so better-evidenced models count more. Green ≥70, amber 50–69, grey below 50.

Revenue & earnings trend

Growth Quality ⓘGrowth is valuable only when reinvestment earns attractive returns (Aswath Damodaran): sustainable growth depends on return on capital, reinvestment and efficiency. Basis: total company revenue over the periods shown on the cards (3Y/5Y/all years), not per share, so a merger can show up as a growth jump; per-share earnings growth is in the value-creation card. 40/100

Revenue growth is inconsistent: the periods point in different directions, so there is no trend to rely on.

Revenue growth 1 year

−8.2%

Revenue growth 3 years ⓘMeasures the company's TOTAL revenue from reported annual statements: compound average growth per year (CAGR) from the fiscal year 3, 5 or N years back to the most recent comparable fiscal year. Not per share: buybacks do not change this number, and a merger can appear as a growth jump. Per-share growth (which does include buybacks) is in the value-creation card.

Revenue growth 5 years ⓘMeasures the company's TOTAL revenue from reported annual statements: compound average growth per year (CAGR) from the fiscal year 3, 5 or N years back to the most recent comparable fiscal year.

What shareholders gained per year (last 5 years) ⓘWhat the business itself delivers per year: earnings growth per share plus the dividend yield. This is what you get IF the market keeps valuing the stock the same way: it contains no assumption about the market changing its mind. Computed per share, so buybacks count and a merger does not pass as growth. For a company that pays no dividend it is pure earnings growth per share. Period: earnings growth per share as CAGR over the last 5 reported fiscal years (annual statements), plus the current dividend yield. The start value is the median of the three years around the start, so a single crisis year (a pandemic or a write-down) does not distort the rate.

Pace: 5 vs 10 years ⓘTwo data points, not a trend model: earnings growth per share over the last 5 fiscal years against the last 10.

Pace: the 5-year rate starts in 2020 (pandemic)

Growth Forecast

Little optimism in the price

The price assumes less growth than the company has delivered so far and less than analysts expect.

What the price assumes ⓘThis turns our valuation around: instead of asking what the share is worth, it asks what growth the current price requires. It uses the cash the company keeps after all spending (free cash flow), the same discount rate as our models, five years of growth, then slowing evenly to 2 % a year by year ten. Compared with the analysts' sales forecasts extended to the same five years (at least three analysts, for context only, it does not enter the Fair Value): within 3 percentage points counts as "in line" (amber), below that little optimism (green), above that a lot of optimism (red).

−6.5%

The company could shrink this much every year for the next five years and today's price would still be justified.

What forecasts expect ⓘAnalysts publish sales forecasts for the next two fiscal years. For the years after that, growth slows evenly to 2 % a year by year ten (2 % is the long-run rate our models use). Projected years are marked as such.

+0.7%

Yearly sales growth analysts expect, extended to five years.

After inflation (Hong Kong: IMF forecast 2.1% a year to 2030, 1.8% from 2016 to 2025) that is about −8.4% a year for the price and −1.4% for the forecasts.

What growth is priced into CNOOC Ltd (0883)?

For today's price to be fair in a discounted-cash-flow model, CNOOC Ltd would have to grow free cash flow by -6.5 % per year for five years (discount rate 8.6 %, then slowing evenly to 2 % perpetual growth by year ten). Over the last 5 years revenue grew +20.0 % per year. As of Nov 4, 2026.

What discount rate (WACC) does the fair value of 0883 use?

Our models discount CNOOC Ltd at 8.6 %: a base by market capitalisation (large), damped by beta 0.34, country premium for Hong Kong. The same rate applies in all 26 models.

What is a reverse DCF?

A reverse DCF turns the usual calculation around. Instead of deriving a value from assumptions, it takes today's price as given and asks: what free-cash-flow growth would a company have to deliver for exactly this price to be fair? The result is not a forecast but the expectation already priced in. For CNOOC Ltd that is -6.5 % per year a year over ten years, using the same discount rate (8.6 %) and the same formula as our fair value.

How much growth has CNOOC Ltd (0883) delivered so far?

Over the past 5 years revenue at CNOOC Ltd grew +20.0 % a year. The price currently implies -6.5 % per year free-cash-flow growth a year. Comparing the two shows how much confidence is in the price: if it demands more than has been delivered, the business has to accelerate for the maths to work.

How fast is the sector of CNOOC Ltd (0883) growing?

The median revenue growth in the sector is +14.2 % a year. That is the yardstick for the growth priced into CNOOC Ltd (-6.5 % per year a year): it shows whether the expectation is within the usual range or beyond it.

What is the free cash flow yield of CNOOC Ltd (0883)?

The free-cash-flow yield on the price is 8.76 %: that much free cash flow CNOOC Ltd produces per unit of market value. When it exceeds the discount rate of our models (8.6 %), the business already earns more than its cost of capital demands, and the price needs little additional growth.

What is the intrinsic value of CNOOC Ltd (0883)?

Intrinsic value and fair value mean the same thing: what the business is worth on its numbers, independent of the share price. For CNOOC Ltd it is HK$26.79 per share (as of Nov 4, 2026), against a price of HK$23.28. It is the blended result of 26 valuation models (cash flow, earnings, asset, dividend).

Is CNOOC Ltd stock overvalued or undervalued in 2026?

As of Nov 4, 2026, 0883 trades below its calculated fair value: price HK$23.28, fair value HK$26.79, a gap of about +15% (undervalued). The calculation is refreshed with each new quarterly report, so the verdict can change during the year.

Is fair value the same as the market price of 0883?

No. The price is what the market pays today (HK$23.28); the fair value is what the company's own numbers justify (HK$26.79). For CNOOC Ltd the two are HK$3.51 per share apart. That gap is exactly why we show both numbers side by side.

How much is CNOOC Ltd worth?

The market values CNOOC Ltd at about HK$1.1T (market capitalisation, as of Nov 4, 2026). Per share that is HK$23.28; our models calculate a fair value of HK$26.79 per share.

What do the bullish and bearish scenarios say about 0883?

Our models span a range for CNOOC Ltd: cautious scenario HK$20.14, base HK$26.79, optimistic HK$34.27 per share (as of Nov 4, 2026, price HK$23.28). The range comes from different growth and margin assumptions, not from analyst opinions.

What is the P/E ratio of 0883?

CNOOC Ltd trades at a price-to-earnings ratio of 7.3 (as of Nov 4, 2026). A P/E on its own says little: it compares the price with ONE year of profit, while our fair value of HK$26.79 is built from several models across several years. Other multiples: PEG 0.2, P/B 1.4, P/S 2.5, EV/EBITDA 4.0.

What is the PEG ratio of 0883?

The PEG ratio of CNOOC Ltd is 0.16 (P/E divided by earnings growth, as of Nov 4, 2026). That is below 1, so growth is priced more cheaply than the earnings multiple alone suggests.

How solid is the balance sheet of CNOOC Ltd (0883)?

Balance-sheet figures for CNOOC Ltd (as of Nov 4, 2026): return on equity 17.0%, debt of 0.07 per unit of equity. They feed the Quality Score of 64/100, which measures business quality independently of the share price.
