JD.com (JD) Draws Fresh Analyst Attention After Growth Calls But Is It A Bargain

Listen to the news

Fresh analyst commentary around forecasted earnings growth and valuation metrics has pushed JD.com (NasdaqGS:JD) back into focus for investors, who are weighing that outlook against the stock’s recent muted share performance.

At a share price of US$26.78, JD.com has seen its 90 day share price return fall about 12%, while the 1 year total shareholder return is down about 18%. This points to fading momentum even as valuation commentary and earnings forecasts pull fresh attention back to the stock.

So is JD.com’s muted share performance telling you something about the underlying business, or mostly reflecting cooler sentiment around the stock? And how does that tension show up in the current valuation setup?

Most Popular Narrative: 31% Undervalued

On the most followed view of JD.com, a fair value of $38.99 sits well above the last close at $26.78. As a result, the gap between price and that narrative has become hard for many investors to ignore.

Diversification into higher frequency and non electronics categories such as supermarket, health care, and food delivery, supported by general merchandise growth in the mid-teens, consistent double digit supermarket performance, and sequential loss reductions in JD Food Delivery, points to additional revenue streams that can support group net margin expansion as they scale.

Result: Fair Value of $38.99 (UNDERVALUED)

Still, this JD.com narrative can be upset if heavy spending on AI, robotics and overseas projects fails to earn its keep, or if Chinese e commerce competition keeps squeezing pricing.
