- Market cap
Market cap
What the whole company costs at today's price.
How it's worked out
Share price multiplied by every share in issue.
How to read it
It is the company's size, not its value. A big number does not mean the price is high against earnings, and a small one does not mean it is low — that is what the ratios below are for.

- Price per rupee earned
Price per rupee earned
Rupees you pay for each rupee the company earned last year.
How it's worked out
Share price divided by earnings per share over the last twelve reported months.
How to read it
Lower only means something against something — the same company's history, its sector, or the market. On its own this ratio says very little, and it is blank when a company lost money.

How it's worked out

How to read it
A very high yield is often a warning, not a gift: it usually means the price fell. Check the payout ratio next to see whether earnings actually cover it.

What's good about HUBC, and what isn't
Read off the numbers below · 11 Nov 2026
Every line states the bar it was judged against, so you can disagree with the bar rather than argue with a verdict. Nothing here is scored or ranked, and where a number is missing the sentence is simply not written.
In its favour
-
Paid 4 times in the last twelve months.
Four or more cash dividends in a year
-
A Rs 1,000,000 order is a rounding error in a normal session.
Under 5% of a session's turnover
Against it
-
It paid out 106% of earnings — more than it made.
Payout ratio above 100%
-
Earnings per share have shrunk 8% a year over three years.
Negative three-year EPS growth
-
It catches 118% of the market's falls and only 106% of its rises.
Down capture above 115 and worse than up capture
Worth knowing
-
Dividends were 104% of the last year's return — the part a price chart never shows.
Income at least 40% of total return

How does HUBC’s valuation compare with its sector?
Computed from reported filings and HUBC's own price history · 11 Nov 2026
One ratio on its own says little. These put HUBC's valuation next to its sector and the market, its dividend next to its earnings, its quoted price next to how much of it actually trades, and its return next to the risk taken to earn it.
Valuation in context
- Earnings yield
Earnings yield
What the business earns on its price, so it lines up with a savings rate.
How it's worked out
Earnings per share divided by the share price — the price-to-earnings ratio turned over.
How to read it
If a company earns 17% against its price and a T-bill pays 12%, you can finally compare the two. It is what the business earns, not what it pays you — the dividend yield is the cash that reaches your account.
- 9.11%
- Price to sales
Price to sales
What you pay for each rupee of revenue.
How it's worked out
Market cap divided by the latest reported annual sales.
How to read it
Useful where earnings are negative or lumpy and a price-to-earnings ratio says nothing. It ignores costs entirely, so a low number does not mean a good business.
- —
- Price, earnings and growth together
Price, earnings and growth together
The price per rupee earned, measured against how fast earnings are growing.
How it's worked out
The price-to-earnings ratio divided by the three-year growth rate of earnings per share.
How to read it
Under 1 is the old rule of thumb for a multiple that growth justifies. Blank when earnings are shrinking, because the ratio flips sign and stops meaning anything.
- —
- vs the KSE-100's own multiple
vs the KSE-100's own multiple
Whether a rupee of this company's earnings costs more or less than the market's.
How it's worked out
Its price-to-earnings ratio against the KSE-100's, which we compute as the total market cap of the index over the total earnings of its members.
How to read it
−30% means it trades thirty percent below the market's multiple. Below the market is a question, not an answer: often the market is right about why.

Position in 52-week range
Where today's price sits between the year's low and high.
How it's worked out
Zero at the 52-week low, 100 at the high.

- 36%
- vs KSE-100, one year
vs KSE-100, one year
How far ahead of or behind the market it finished.
How it's worked out
Its one-year return minus the KSE-100's, in percentage points.
How to read it
"Up 12%" means one thing when the index rose 20% and another when it fell. Unlike alpha, this ignores how much market risk was carried to get there.
- -7.0 pts
It costs less for each rupee earned than 59% of the power generation & distribution companies with reported earnings, and it yields more than 42% of them.
Income & quality
- Dividend per share, 12 months
Dividend per share
The actual rupees per share paid out over the last twelve months.
How it's worked out
Every cash dividend with an ex-date in the last year, added up from the exchange's own book-closure notices.
How to read it
Multiply by your shares and that is the cash that reached you, before tax. Bonus shares are not in here — they are not money.

- Cash dividends paid, 12 months
Dividends paid
How many times it paid cash in the last twelve months.
How it's worked out
A count of cash dividends with an ex-date in the last year.
How to read it
Four usually means a quarterly payer, one means an annual one. A steady cadence is worth more to an income investor than a single big number.
- 4
- Payout ratio
Payout ratio
How much of its profit the company hands to shareholders.
How it's worked out
Dividend per share over the last year divided by earnings per share.
How to read it
Above 100% means it paid out more than it earned — possible from reserves for a year, not for five. Low means it is keeping money to reinvest, which is not automatically bad.
- 106%
- Dividend cover
Dividend cover
How many times over the earnings could pay the dividend.
How it's worked out
Earnings per share divided by dividend per share — the payout ratio the other way round.
How to read it
Above 2 is comfortable. Below 1 means the dividend is coming from somewhere other than this year's profit.
- 0.94×
- Net margin
Net margin
How much of every rupee of sales survives to profit.
How it's worked out
Net profit after tax divided by sales, from the annual filing.
How to read it
Compare it only within an industry — a supermarket at 3% can be healthier than a manufacturer at 10%. The direction matters more than the level.
- —
- Margin, 3-year change
Margin, 3-year change
Whether the business is getting more or less profitable.
How it's worked out
The latest net margin minus the one three years earlier, in percentage points.
How to read it
A widening margin on flat sales is a company with pricing power. A shrinking one is usually costs, competition, or both.
- —
- EPS growth, 3-year
EPS growth, 3-year
How fast profit per share has compounded.
How it's worked out
The annual rate that turns the earnings per share of three years ago into today's.
How to read it
Blank if the company was losing money three years ago — a move from a loss to a profit has no meaningful growth rate, and printing one would be arithmetic pretending to be insight.
- -7.5% a year
- Sales growth, 3-year
Sales growth, 3-year
How fast revenue has compounded.
How it's worked out
The annual rate that turns the sales of three years ago into today's.
How to read it
Read it next to EPS growth. Sales rising faster than profit means the growth is being bought with margin.
- —
It paid out more than it earned over the last year — sustainable from reserves for a while, not indefinitely.
Can you actually trade it
- Median traded per session
Traded per session
The rupees that change hands on a typical day.
How it's worked out
The median of price times volume over the last 60 sessions — the median, so one block trade cannot make a dead stock look busy.
How to read it
This is the number that decides whether the quoted price is a price you can actually get.
- Rs 354M
- Sessions to trade Rs 1M
Sessions to trade Rs 1M
How long it would take to trade into or out of a Rs 1,000,000 position.
How it's worked out
Rs 1,000,000 divided by the median rupees traded a session.
How to read it
Under 0.01 and your order is a rounding error. Above 1 and you are the day's volume — expect to move the price against yourself getting out.
- <0.01
- Untraded sessions, last 60
Untraded sessions
Days in the last 60 when literally nothing traded.
How it's worked out
A count of sessions with zero volume.
How to read it
Any number above zero means there are days you could not have sold at any price. On PSX this is common well outside the KSE-100.
- 0
- Daily volume vs free float
Daily volume vs free float
What share of the tradable stock changes hands on a normal day.
How it's worked out
Average daily volume divided by the free float — the shares not locked up by sponsors.
How to read it
A company can be huge and still barely trade if the family owns 90% of it. This separates size from liquidity.
- 0.31%
- Price impact per Rs 1M traded
Price impact per Rs 1M
How much a Rs 1,000,000 order moves the price on a typical day.
How it's worked out
We take the size of the price move on each day and divide it by the money traded that day, then scale it to a Rs 1,000,000 order. We use the middle value over the last year. Traders call this the Amihud ratio. It is shown in basis points: 100 basis points is 1%, so 0.07 basis points is 0.0007%.
How to read it
A small number means an order of this size barely moves the price. A large number means the price moves a lot when someone buys or sells this much.
- 0.16 bps
- Implied bid-ask spread
Implied bid-ask spread
The hidden cost of a round trip, estimated from the price series.
How it's worked out
Roll's estimator: prices bounce between bid and ask, and the size of that bounce implies the spread.
How to read it
It is the toll you pay to enter and leave, before any brokerage. Blank when the price is trending rather than bouncing, because then the model does not apply and we would rather say nothing.
- 1.07%
- Float turned over, one year
Float turned over, one year
How many times the tradable stock changed hands in a year.
How it's worked out
A year's volume divided by the free float. Exchanges publish this about themselves; this is the same measure for one company.
How to read it
100% means the entire float turned over once. Single digits mean a register that never moves, whatever the market cap says.
- 121%
- Sessions with a trade, one year
Sessions with a trade
How often it trades at all.
How it's worked out
The share of the last 250 sessions with any volume.
How to read it
Anything below 100% means there were days with no market. Below 90% is more than 25 such days in the last 250 — on each of those days no trade happened at any price, so an order placed that day did not execute.
- 100%
Liquidity is deep: a Rs 1,000,000 order is about a rounding error in a normal session's turnover.
A Rs 1,000,000 ticket barely registers — about 0.16 basis points on the median session, measured the way a trading desk measures it.
What the risk paid
- Total return, one yearincl. dividends
Total return, one year
What a holder actually made, dividends included.
How it's worked out
The price move over twelve months plus every cash dividend paid in that window, counted as received on its ex-date.
How to read it
Every other PSX site quotes the price move alone. On a market yielding what this one does, that understates what holders made by a third or more.

- -0.4%
- — from dividends
— from dividends
The part of the year's return that arrived as cash.
How it's worked out

The half of the return a price chart cannot show you. For many PSX names it is most of it.
- +9.5%
- Return per unit of risk
Return per unit of risk
How much you were paid for how rough the ride was.
How it's worked out
The one-year return divided by the annualised volatility of the daily moves.
How to read it
Two stocks up 20% are not the same if one did it calmly and the other halved on the way. Deliberately not a Sharpe ratio: quoting a risk-free rate for Pakistan means picking a T-bill tenor and pretending that was your alternative.
- -0.01
- Alpha vs KSE-100, one year
Alpha vs KSE-100
The part of the year's return the market does not explain.
How it's worked out
The stock's return minus its beta times the index's return.
How to read it
A high-beta name rising in a rising market has done nothing clever. This strips that out and leaves what was actually the company's doing.

Caught of the market's up moves
How much of the market's good days this stock catches.
How it's worked out
The stock's total return across the index's up days, divided by the index's own.
How to read it
Above 100 means it rises more than the market does. Read it with down capture — the pair is the whole picture, either half alone flatters.

- Caught of its down moves
Caught of its down moves
How much of the market's bad days this stock catches.
How it's worked out
The stock's total return across the index's down days, divided by the index's own.
How to read it
Below 100 means it falls less than the market. Above 100 means it falls further than the market does on the market's bad days, which a headline return usually hides.
- 118%
- Worst day in twenty
Worst day in twenty
The fall to expect on a bad day.
How it's worked out
The fifth-percentile daily return over the last year — the actual distribution, not a bell curve.
How to read it
One session in twenty is at least this bad. It is a normal day at the office, not a crash, and the crash is worse than this by definition.
- −2.9%
- Below its 52-week high
Below its 52-week high
How far under its best price of the year it sits now.
How it's worked out
The 52-week high minus today's price, as a percentage of that high.

The Hub Power Company balance sheet and returns
Return on equity, book value, gearing and margins for The Hub Power Company — read out of the company’s own audited annual report, because the exchange publishes no balance sheet. Figures for the year ended 30 Jun 2026, 5 months old.

- Price to book
Price to book
What the market charges for each rupee of net assets.
How it's worked out
Share price divided by book value per share.
How to read it
Under 1 means the market values the whole company at less than the net assets on its own balance sheet. On PSX that is common and is sometimes a bargain and sometimes a warning — check why.

- Current ratio
Current ratio
Can it pay the bills due inside a year?
How it's worked out
Current assets divided by current liabilities, from the annual report.
How to read it
Under 1 means more falls due within a year than the company expects to collect within one. Not fatal on its own — but it is the first place to look when a company is in trouble.

Liabilities to equity
How much is owed against how much is owned outright.
How it's worked out
Total liabilities divided by total equity. The broad measure — all liabilities, not only interest-bearing borrowings — because that is what the published tables reliably carry.
How to read it
Leverage magnifies both directions. High gearing is normal for banks and leasing, alarming for a manufacturer in a high-rate year like Pakistan has had.

Funded by shareholders
The share of the balance sheet shareholders actually paid for.
How it's worked out
Total equity as a percentage of total assets — the plain-English complement of leverage.
How to read it
The higher it is, the less the company depends on lenders staying friendly. At Pakistani interest rates that dependence has cost a great deal.
