Price-to-Book Ratio (P/B Ratio)
Price‑to‑Book Ratio (P/B Ratio) compares a company’s share price to its book value (net assets recorded on the balance sheet), indicating how much investors are paying for each dollar of the company’s net assets. A lower P/B may suggest that a stock is undervalued relative to its assets, while a higher P/B may reflect the market’s recognition of intangible assets, strong profitability, or expectations of higher returns on equity and future growth.
Explanatory Notes
  1. The data displayed is provided by London Stock Exchange Group plc (LSEG) based on available public information (including disclosures made by listed companies).

     

  2. Metrics available on this webpage cover issuers of equity securities only.

     

  3. “–” is displayed where the relevant issuer was unlisted for the relevant period, or has not published its interim/annual financial results for the relevant reporting period despite the publication deadline prescribed by the Listing Rules.

     

  4. For ROE, “N/A” is displayed when the average shareholder equity (i.e. the denominator of ROE) is negative.  For P/E, P/B and Dividend Payout Ratio, “N/A” is displayed when the calculated values are negative. The reason is that such negative figures are not economically meaningful, and displaying them could distort the interpretation of financial data.

     

  5. Metrics are refreshed on a daily basis, subject to the availability of relevant data to LSEG. Where certain data for an interim period is not available in the LSEG’s database, the corresponding data for most recent financial year will be presented.

     

    • For ROE, P/E and EPS: These ratios are calculated using the relevant financial data from issuers’ most recently published results announcements or reports on a trailing twelve-month (TTM) basis.

    • For P/B and Net Assets Per Share: These ratios are calculated using the relevant financial data from issuers’ most recently published interim or annual results announcements or reports.

    • For Dividend Yield Ratio, Dividend Payout Ratio and Total Shareholder Return: These ratios are calculated using the relevant financial data from issuers’ published annual results announcements or reports for the relevant year.

    Please see Note 11 below for detailed calculation formulas.


  6. For issuers with a financial year end other than 31 December:

     

    • In the “As of the latest” column, [Year X/X+1] is shown to indicate that the financial year spans two calendar years. For example, for an issuer with a financial year ended 31 March, “2025/26 interim” refers to the six months ended 30 September 2025; while “2025/26 annual” refers to the financial year ended 31 March 2026.

    • In a [Year X] column, metrics are calculated based on the relevant financial data from an issuer’s annual results for the financial year [Year X-1/X]. For example, for an issuer with a financial year ended 31 March, the metrics in “2025” column are calculated using audited results for FY2024/25 (i.e. the year ended 31 March 2025).

  7. For issuers whose reporting currency is not Hong Kong dollars, metrics are calculated by converting the issuers’ relevant financial data into Hong Kong dollars using LSEG’s exchange rates as at the last trading day of the relevant period.

     

  8. The weighted average metrics of all issuers, Main Board issuers, GEM issuers, HSI constituents and issuers within the same industry displayed in the charts (Charts) are calculated adopting an aggregate approach (See Note 11 below for detailed calculation formulas).  These figures are refreshed on a daily basis, subject to the availability of relevant data to LSEG. To ensure meaningful comparison across years and that Charts are representative of issuers’ performance within the relevant market or industry sector, issuers with extreme calculated metrics may be considered as outliers and be excluded from the calculation of the relevant weighted average metric.

     

  9. The columns showing four full historical financial years in the table and the Charts showing the relevant weighted average metrics over the four full historical financial years will be updated to roll forward by one year each May, on an annual basis. The Chart showing trends by industry sector of issuers under “Market” view displays weighted average metrics for the latest full historical financial year, and will be updated to roll forward by one year each May, on an annual basis.

     

  10. An issuer’s industry and sector classification displayed on the website, for both the latest period and prior financial years, is based on the latest Hang Seng Industry Classification System (HSIC), regardless of any changes to its classification in earlier periods.

     

  11. For detailed calculation formulas for each metric, please refer to the Shareholder Value in Focus Calculation Methodology available here.
