There are a few key trends to look for if we want to identify the next multi-bagger. In a perfect world, we'd like to see a company investing more capital into its business and ideally the returns earned from that capital are also increasing. If you see this, it typically means it's a company with a great business model and plenty of profitable reinvestment opportunities. So on that note, Accelink Technologies CoLtd (SZSE:002281) looks quite promising in regards to its trends of return on capital.

Understanding Return On Capital Employed (ROCE)

If you haven't worked with ROCE before, it measures the 'return' (pre-tax profit) a company generates from capital employed in its business. To calculate this metric for Accelink Technologies CoLtd, this is the formula:

Return on Capital Employed = Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT) ÷ (Total Assets - Current Liabilities)

0.069 = CN¥644m ÷ (CN¥14b - CN¥4.2b) (Based on the trailing twelve months to September 2024).

Thus, Accelink Technologies CoLtd has an ROCE of 6.9%. In absolute terms, that's a low return, but it's much better than the Electronic industry average of 5.5%.
