Analysis

China Energy Development Holdings (0228) currently trades at HK$1.13, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is HK$0.5957, implying the stock looks roughly 47.3% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 49/100 (below-average quality), in the Energy sector. Bear case: priced above our estimate, the market already discounts strong expectations. Bull case: above-average quality can justify a premium, the entry price still matters most (evidence: high).

Over the trailing twelve months, China Energy Development Holdings generated revenue of HK$234M at a net margin of 11.1%. Revenue declined 14.1% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 1.2%. Net debt stands at HK$7.8M. Fundamentals as of Aug 2, 2026

Our scenario range runs from HK$0.5434 (bear case) to HK$0.6375 (bull case); at HK$1.13, the current price sits above that range. Bear and bull are the same models run on conservative and optimistic assumptions (margins, growth, valuation multiples), so a plausible valuation range, not a price target. The share trades about 49% below its 52-week high, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Energy peers we cover trades at -11% fair-value upside, at -47%, 0228 screens richer than that median.

Fair Value models

Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted blend. Evidence (0–100) measures how completely this model’s inputs are available: well-fed models carry more weight in the blend. The spread across models is intentional, each one stresses a different value driver; dividend models, for instance, come out structurally low when payout is small.

Model 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. Evidence
