Analysis
WH Group (0288) currently trades at HK$8.22, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is HK$2.56, implying the stock looks roughly 68.9% overvalued today. We read business quality at 62/100 (solid quality), in the Consumer Defensive 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: medium).
Over the trailing twelve months, WH Group generated revenue of HK$28.0B at a net margin of 5.6%. Revenue grew 7.3% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 15.7%. Net debt stands at HK$1.6B. Fundamentals as of Jul 14, 2026
Our scenario range runs from HK$1.84 (bear case) to HK$3.21 (bull case); at HK$8.22, 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 last reported earnings sit well below what analysts expect (earnings in transition, for example after write-downs or an earnings dip); whether the stock is cheap or expensive hinges on the expected recovery actually arriving. Read the fair value with that caveat. The share trades about 21% below its 52-week high and 28% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Consumer Defensive peers we cover trades at -3% fair-value upside, at -69%, 0288 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.
All 26 models by family
Widest divergence: DCF Models (HK$2.58) versus Asset-Based (HK$0.5800). Highest evidence: Growth DCF (80).
