• Business Evaluation: The company’s ROIC last year was 11.17%, indicating an average capital return rate. Last year’s net profit margin was 2.65%, suggesting that after accounting for all costs, the company’s products or services have low added value. Historical annual reports over the past 10 years show a median ROIC of 1.05%, indicating weak investment returns, with the worst year being 2020 at -45.77%, reflecting very poor investment performance. The company’s historical financial reports are generally average, with 16 annual reports since listing, and 7 years of losses. Without factors like backdoor listings, such companies are generally not favored by value investors.
