See our full analysis for China Science and Education Industry Group. With the headline numbers on the table, the next step is to see how this mix of revenue growth, softer margins, and modest earnings gains lines up against the prevailing narratives investors have been using to frame China Science and Education Industry Group. Curious how numbers become stories that shape markets? Explore Community Narratives SEHK:1756 Earnings & Revenue History as at Dec 2025 Five year EPS growth at 17.2% vs 1.6% this year  On a trailing twelve month basis, earnings have grown 1.6% over the past year compared with 17.2% per year over the last five years, pointing to a clear gap between recent momentum and the longer term trend. Supporters of a bullish view see the 17.2% multi year earnings growth as the anchor for long run compounding. However, the latest 1.6% increase forces a check on how durable that pace really is\n     Multi year EPS expansion is visible in the trailing twelve month EPS figure of CNY 0.38, which sits above the CNY 0.19 per half year prints now, but the step down from 17.2% to 1.6% growth suggests that near term contribution is more modest than the historical average. Investors weighing a bullish case will likely compare that slower 1.6% growth with the still solid TTM net income of CNY 458.3 million, asking whether past compounding can continue without a reacceleration in the headline growth rate.    To see how this slower near term growth fits into the bigger story for the company, some investors look at a full narrative that connects these numbers to long term drivers and risks. 📊 Read the full China Science and Education Industry Group Consensus Narrative. Margins ease from 35.6% to 31.7%  Trailing net profit margin has moved from 35.6% to 31.7% over the last twelve months, while TTM net income of CNY 458.3 million now sits on revenue of CNY 1.45 billion, so more of each sales yuan is being absorbed by costs than a year ago. Critics taking a more bearish stance focus on that 3.9 percentage point margin decline as a sign that profitability is under pressure even though revenue has grown\n     The combination of higher trailing twelve month revenue, up from CNY 1.27 billion to CNY 1.45 billion, and lower margins at 31.7% undercuts a simple bear argument that demand is weakening, instead pointing their attention directly to cost structure and pricing. With net income excluding extra items at CNY 223.98 million in 2H 2025 versus CNY 231.18 million in 2H 2024 even as that half year revenue rose from CNY 628.4 million to CNY 724.6 million, bears can argue that incremental sales are currently generating less profit than before.    P/E at 1.6x and 53.8% below DCF fair value  The shares trade on a trailing P/E of 1.6 times earnings compared with 6.2 times for peers and 7.5 times for the wider Hong Kong consumer services group, and also sit around HK$0.66 versus a DCF fair value of about HK$1.43, which implies a discount of roughly 53.8% to that valuation model. What stands out for a bullish minded investor is how this low multiple and 53.8% gap to DCF fair value sit alongside the company’s record of 17.2% annual earnings growth over five years\n     The 1.6 times P/E is backed by trailing twelve month net income of CNY 458.3 million and EPS of CNY 0.38, so the market is paying a relatively small price for each unit of profit compared with peers on 6.2 times earnings. Even after factoring in the slower 1.6% earnings growth and margin move from 35.6% to 31.7%, the contrast between HK$0.66 and the HK$1.43 DCF fair value gives bulls a concrete valuation gap they can point to as potential upside if operations stabilize.
