Quarterly results
ESEF annual reports carry no quarters: the results are annual (below).
E/P over time
E/P = trailing-12-month diluted EPS / price at quarter end. E/P is the inverse of P/E and stays defined when earnings are negative.
Today's P/E sits at the 33 percentile of its own 3-quarter history (min 6.6, median 7.6, max 8.6; quarters with earnings only).

Memo
ASIA PACIFIC WIRE & CABLE CORPORATION LIMITED (APWC). Latest full fiscal year: 2024; data up to 2024-12-31.
Figures computed from the financial statements: revenue 472.7 m USD in 2024; YoY growth 11.0%; net margin 0.7%; ROE 2.2%; net debt/EBITDA -0.3x.
The estimated value range is 3.76–7.61 USD per share (median of 4 methods, agreement: medium); assumptions are illustrative. Against the central value of 5.04 USD, the price of 1.12 USD leaves a potential of 350.0% (value / price − 1) and a margin of safety of 77.8% (1 − price / value). The range is the median of the methods' low, central and high values, not a probability interval.
olivLaw score 62/100, methodological classification: neutral profile (score, margin of safety and method agreement together; not a judgement of the right price). Groups assessed only in part: growth, returns. Not investment advice.

In brief
APWC is a holding company based in Taipei that manufactures and distributes enameled wire, power cable and telecommunications cable across the Asia Pacific, serving appliance makers and infrastructure projects. Revenue reached 489.7 million USD in fiscal 2025, but operating profit fell to 6.4 million USD, and the company is now seeking to expand production capacity with funds raised in a February 2026 rights offering.
SWOT
Strengths
Weaknesses
Opportunities
Risks
- Dependence on copper priceshigh
Copper makes up most of cost of sales, and price adjustments sometimes lag, which can compress margins 1.
- Higher debtmedium
Interest-bearing borrowings rose in 2025, and financing costs could weigh on profitability if interest rates climb 1.
- Geopolitical and trade riskshigh
Trade disputes and tariffs can change demand and supply chains across several regions 1.
- Restrictions on dividend distributionsmedium
Subsidiaries may face legal or contractual limits, and withholding taxes on dividends in some countries reduce flows to the parent 1.
- Concentrated shareholdinglow
The majority shareholder holds about 81% of shares, which limits the influence of minority shareholders 1.
Investment thesis
What would need to be true (bull case)
- If supply chain realignment and energy demand persist, the new facilities could support revenue growth.
- Fresh capital from the rights offering could fund expansion into markets with stronger demand and ease pressure on debt.
- A presence in several countries could offset weakness in any single market.
What would break the thesis
- Operating profit fell in 2025 and margins are very thin, leaving little room for error.
- If copper prices keep rising, the company could struggle to pass costs on to customers.
- Higher debt and restrictions on distributions could limit the ability to fund dividends or investment.
What to watch

Possibly outdated: the newest document it read is from 29 Apr 2026; since then the company filed 6-K (15 Sept 2026), 6-K (14 Aug 2026), 6-K (23 Jul 2026), 6-K (14 May 2026), 6-K (01 May 2026).
The business
APWC is a holding company that runs its business through operating subsidiaries, principally manufacturing and distributing enameled wire, power cable and telecommunications cable in Thailand, Singapore, Australia, the PRC, Hong Kong and other Asia Pacific markets 1. It also provides project engineering services for the supply, delivery and installation of power cable (SDI) 1. Its major customers are appliance component makers, electrical contractors, state-owned entities, dealers and factories 1. The company has not paid a dividend to common shareholders since 2019, and its ability to pay depends on distributions from operating subsidiaries 1.
In 2025 the company set out strategies to benefit from the global realignment of supply chains driven by trade and national security policies, as well as stronger demand for energy and infrastructure 1. Proceeds from the February 2026 rights offering are to fund new production facilities, which may open markets in North America and Southeast Asia, and new technologies such as flow battery storage, energy management systems and data center products 1. The company states it does not currently use artificial intelligence technologies to any significant extent 1.
Results are reported across three segments: Thailand, North Asia and ROW (rest of world), with power cable and enameled wire the largest product lines 1. Power cables carry electricity in commercial and residential buildings, while enameled wires go into motors, transformers and other electrical goods 1. Copper rod is the main raw material and the majority of cost of sales, and the company tries to pass copper price changes through to customers 1.
Segments
Market context
Trends
- Supply chain realignmenttailwind
Trade and national security policies may lead customers to shift production, which could create demand for new capacity in other regions 1. The company links this strategy to the new facilities it could build with rights offering proceeds 1.
- Demand for energy and infrastructuretailwind
Investment in energy networks and transport infrastructure could support power cable sales, particularly in public projects in Singapore and Thailand 1. The company cites this demand as a driver of its growth strategy 1.
- Copper price volatilityheadwind
Copper makes up most of cost of sales, and the company notes that price changes are not always fully reflected right away, especially in fixed-price project contracts 1. If copper prices keep rising, margins could come under further pressure 1.
- Trade tensions and currency swingsmixed
U.S.-China trade disputes and local currencies have influenced results, with a stronger Thai baht supporting dollar-reported revenue while capital outflows are restricted in some countries 1. The net effect depends on how policies and exchange rates evolve, which makes the trend mixed 1.
Competitive position
The source does not describe competitors in detail, but says the market is affected by competition, raw material costs and trade tensions 1. APWC describes its Thai subsidiary Charoong Thai as one of the leading cable manufacturers in Thailand 1. Direct competition depends on each geographic market and product line 1.
The company differentiates through brands of each subsidiary, its ability to win public tenders and the technical services it offers customers 1. Its edge rests on regional presence and relationships with state entities, but the source gives no market share or quantitative comparison with other players 1.
