Analysts use this formula to calculate it for Damai Entertainment Holdings: <\/p>\n<p> <strong>Return on Capital Employed = Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT) \u00f7 (Total Assets &#8211; Current Liabilities)<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>0.039 = CN\u00a5681m \u00f7 (CN\u00a526b &#8211; CN\u00a59.2b) <em>(Based on the trailing twelve months to September 2025)<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p> Thus, <strong>Damai Entertainment Holdings has an ROCE of 3.9%. <\/strong> In absolute terms, that&#8217;s a low return and it also under-performs the Entertainment industry average of 9.5%.  <\/p>\n<p><span class=\"veryHighlightLink\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/simplywall.st\/stocks\/hk\/media\/hkg-1060\/damai-entertainment-holdings-shares\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-vars-link-type=\"cta\" class=\"company-report-links\"> See our latest analysis for Damai Entertainment Holdings <\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<figure><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/simplywall.st\/stocks\/hk\/media\/hkg-1060\/damai-entertainment-holdings-shares\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-vars-link-type=\"infographic\" class=\"company-report-links\"><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">SEHK:1060 Return on Capital Employed January 27th 2026<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p> Above you can see how the current ROCE for Damai Entertainment Holdings compares to its prior returns on capital, but there&#8217;s only so much you can tell from the past.

About  five years ago the company was generating losses but things have turned around because it&#8217;s now earning 3.9% on its capital.  In addition to that, Damai Entertainment Holdings is employing 22% more capital than previously which is expected of a company that&#8217;s trying to break into profitability.  This can tell us that the company has plenty of reinvestment opportunities that are able to generate higher returns.   <\/p>\n<p> For the record though, there was a noticeable increase in the company&#8217;s current liabilities over the period, so we would attribute some of the ROCE growth to that.  Essentially the business now has suppliers or short-term creditors funding about 35% of its operations, which isn&#8217;t ideal.   Keep an eye out for future increases because when the ratio of current liabilities to total assets gets particularly high, this can introduce some new risks for the business.    <\/p>\n<h2> Our Take On Damai Entertainment Holdings&#8217; ROCE <\/h2>\n<p> Overall, Damai Entertainment Holdings gets a big tick from us thanks in most part to the fact that it is now profitable and is reinvesting in its business.        Since the total return from the stock has been almost flat over the last  five years, there might be an opportunity here if the valuation looks good.   With that in mind, we believe the promising trends warrant this stock for further investigation.    <\/p>\n<p> On a final note, we&#8217;ve found <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/simplywall.st\/stocks\/hk\/media\/hkg-1060\/damai-entertainment-holdings-shares\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-vars-link-type=\"conclusion-grid\" class=\"company-report-links\"> <strong> 1 warning sign for Damai Entertainment Holdings<\/strong> <\/a> that we think you should be aware of.   <\/p>\n<p> If you want to search for solid companies with great earnings, check out this <strong>free<\/strong> <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/simplywall.st\/discover\/investing-ideas\/10146\/solid-balance-sheet-and-fundamentals\/global\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-vars-link-type=\"conclusion-grid\" class=\"company-report-links\">list of companies with good balance sheets and impressive returns on equity.<\/a> <\/p>\n<div class=\"sc-80c0fb9d-0 hfaySj\">\n<h3 class=\"m-0 text-balance text-mega font-medium mb-4 font-serif\"><strong>New: <\/strong>Manage All Your Stock Portfolios in One Place<\/h3>\n<p>We&#8217;ve created the <strong>ultimate portfolio companion<\/strong> for stock investors, <strong>and it&#8217;s free.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Connect an unlimited number of Portfolios and see your total in one currency<br \/>\u2022 Be alerted to new Warning Signs or Risks via email or mobile<br \/>\u2022 Track the Fair Value of your stocks<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/simplywall.st\/features\/portfolio\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"sc-kuACkN ichCyz !text-[--s-button-primary-color-text] !no-underline\" data-focus=\"dashed\">Try a Demo Portfolio for Free<\/a><\/div>\n<p class=\"sc-3204b94-2 cZQCtj\"><strong>Have feedback on this article?
