What United Laboratories International does

The United Laboratories International is a Hong Kong-headquartered pharmaceutical group founded in 1990. It operates across the drug value chain through three segments: bulk medicine, intermediate products and finished products. It is best known for penicillin-based antibiotics, supplying key ingredients such as 6-APA and penicillin G potassium as well as amoxicillin. Beyond antibiotics, its finished-drug portfolio covers endocrine and metabolic treatments such as insulin, anti-infectives, eye drugs and topical skin treatments. It also sells health and wellness products, including dietary supplements, cross-border nutrition products and medical skincare.

What is United Laboratories International worth?

On an owner-earnings DCF, United Laboratories International's most-likely value is about HK$3 versus a recent price near HK$7 (154% above fair value). But TacticScale only calls a stock undervalued when the price sits below its conservative no-growth floor (~HK$2) with a margin of safety — so the honest verdict here is “Fairly priced — no edge.” Fair value earns its keep only at the extremes, not in the wide middle.

Verdict: Fairly priced — no edge
Owner-earnings fair value · recent price ≈ HK$7
Fair value (most likely)
HK$3
Range

No-growth floor

Price
~HK$7

Price sits in the normal range — fair value isn't actionable here; it earns its keep only when price drops below the no-growth floor, or runs to roughly double the optimistic case.

Analysis, not advice. Fair value is a margin-of-safety estimate from a deterministic owner-earnings DCF, not a price target or recommendation. See the full breakdown →
