Fundamentals & ratios
Trailing twelve-month figures unless otherwise stated. As of 2025-12-31.
| Metric | Value | Read |
|---|---|---|
| P/E | 3.4 | Price per share / trailing EPS. Low P/E ≠ cheap; interpret alongside growth and payout. |
| P/B | 0.74 | Price / book value per share. Banks trade on P/B; industrials on P/E. |
| Trailing dividend yield | 9.45% | Current yield based on the last declared dividend. Check payout ratio for durability. |
| ROE | 21.4% | Return on equity. Above 20% is strong on a sustained basis. |
| ROA | — | Asset efficiency. Banks run low ROA (capital-intensive); consumer names higher. |
| Debt / Equity | — | Leverage read. Financials are structurally high-D/E; interpret vs sector. |
| Payout ratio | 32% | Dividends / earnings. Very high payouts are harder to sustain through an earnings dip. |
| Dividend cover | 3.08× | EPS / DPS. Below 1× means the company paid more than it earned. |
| Current ratio | — | Short-term liquidity. Above 1 means current assets cover current liabilities. |

Filings & notices

Educational only, not investment advice. How read?
Financials-specific metrics
Industry-specific fundamentals for EGH. Grades are rules of thumb, not regulatory thresholds.
Tier-1 + 2 capital relative to risk-weighted assets. Above 15% is a comfortable buffer above the BoG minimum.
Share of loan book more than 90 days overdue. Below 5% is strong in the Ghanaian context; rising NPLs often precede impairment spikes.
Spread between what the bank earns on assets and pays on liabilities. High T-Bill yields support NIMs across the sector today.
Lower is better. Below 50% is excellent efficiency; above 70% suggests cost bloat.
Deposit base stability is a better read than the headline number in isolation.
Compare loan growth vs deposit growth to see whether risk appetite is expanding.
Trending impairments are an early-warning signal on credit quality.
Descriptive only. Not investment advice.
Earnings history
Annual revenue (outer bar) and net income (inner bar) in GHS. Height is relative; read the axis.
Dividend history
Declared dividend per share by fiscal year
Latest payout ratio approx 32% of net income. Last DPS GH₵0.78.
Educational valuation scenarios
Four independent models. Assumption-sensitive ranges — not recommendations, not price targets.
Assumptions and caveats
- EPS (TTM): GHS 2.40
- Book value / share: GHS 11.20
- Formula: √(22.5 × EPS × BVPS)
- ⚠ Designed for defensive, earnings-positive companies.
- ⚠ Biased conservative — interpret as a ceiling, not a target.
Assumptions and caveats
- Current DPS: GHS 0.78
- Dividend growth (hist.): 11.8%
- Required return range: 24–20%
- ⚠ Extreme sensitivity to the growth-vs-discount gap.
- ⚠ Only meaningful for established dividend payers.
Educational models. Intrinsic value is an estimate, not a forecast. Ghana-aware discount rates (20–24%) reflect local sovereign yields. Nothing on this card is a recommendation to buy or sell.
Valuation toolkit
Interactive dividend-discount and two-stage DCF calculators. Inputs are seeded from public fundamentals and Ghana-specific defaults — change them to see how the implied fair value moves. Educational only. Not a fair-value target, not investment advice.
Dividend Discount Model (Gordon)
Fair value = DPS × (1 + g) / (r − g)
Two-stage DCF
5 years of explicit growth + Gordon-growth terminal value, discounted to today.
Outputs are educational estimates subject to input assumptions. Not a fair-value target, not investment advice. How calculated?
Peer multiples
P/E, P/B, and trailing dividend yield for EGH against sector peers. Medians shown for reference.
| Ticker | P/E | P/B | Div yield |

| ADB | — | — | — |
| Median | 3.6 | 0.73 | 7.59% |
“Discount” / “premium” describes this stock's multiple relative to the peer median only — a cheap multiple can be justified by weaker fundamentals. Educational only.
EGH dividend yield vs T-Bills
Informational comparison. T-Bills are near-risk-free; dividend yield carries principal risk. Not investment advice.
