# CGN Power (SEHK:1816) Valuation Check As Bond Conversion To A Shares Nears In 2026

> CGN Power (SEHK:1816) will allow its A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds to convert into A shares starting January 15, 2026, potentially impacting its capital structure. Currently priced at HK$3.12, the stock shows a P/E ratio of 15x, which is higher than its peers but lower than the Asian renewable energy average. A DCF analysis suggests a fair value of HK$4.83, indicating a 35.3% discount. Investors should consider risks like equity dilution and regulatory changes while evaluating CGN Power's investment potential.

CGN Power (SEHK:1816) has said its A Share Convertible Corporate Bonds will become eligible for conversion into A shares on January 15, 2026, a move that could reshape capital structure and liquidity.

See our latest analysis for CGN Power.

At the current share price of HK$3.12, CGN Power’s recent 7-day and 30-day share price returns of 4.0% and 6.48% suggest interest is picking up again. Its 1-year and 5-year total shareholder returns of 28.91% and 112.95% show a longer track record that investors may weigh alongside moves like the upcoming bond conversion.

If CGN Power’s funding plans have you thinking about other opportunities in essential services, it could be a good moment to check out healthcare stocks as another area to research.

With CGN Power trading around HK$3.12 and an indicated intrinsic value gap, plus only a small discount to the latest analyst target, you have to ask yourself: is there still mispricing here, or is the market already baking in future growth?

## Price-to-Earnings of 15x: Is it justified?

At a last close of HK$3.12, CGN Power is on a P/E of 15x, which screens as good value against the wider Asian renewable energy industry but expensive compared to its closer peer group.

The P/E multiple compares the share price with earnings per share, so it reflects how much investors are currently willing to pay for each unit of profit. For a regulated, capital intensive utility business, earnings based measures like P/E often carry weight because cash generation and profitability sit at the center of many investment cases.

Here, the picture is mixed. On one hand, the stock trades on a lower P/E than the Asian renewable energy industry average of 16.2x. This suggests the market is not paying a premium for its earnings. On the other hand, the same 15x P/E is almost double the peer average of 7.7x and above an estimated fair P/E of 12x. This points to investors assigning a richer multiple than both peers and the level our fair ratio suggests the market could gravitate toward.

Compared with the sector, that gap is hard to ignore. Being cheaper than the broad industry at 16.2x, yet materially higher than peers at 7.7x and above the 12x fair P/E, implies the market is pricing CGN Power differently to both its closest comparables and the fair ratio anchor.
