Venugopal Garre has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that highlight Sea Ltd’s diversified growth potential across multiple segments. The company’s Q2 performance demonstrated a significant shift from being primarily an e-commerce business to having substantial contributions from gaming and fintech, indicating a robust multi-segment growth strategy. Each of these segments showed impressive results, with e-commerce maintaining strong growth despite macroeconomic challenges, fintech achieving substantial loan growth without margin erosion, and gaming experiencing double-digit growth in bookings.
Furthermore, Sea Ltd’s strategic positioning in the ASEAN tech market, with diversified cash flow streams, underscores its potential for sustained revenue growth and margin expansion. The company’s ability to leverage operating efficiencies in e-commerce, expand fintech operations into new markets, and capitalize on gaming’s strong engagement and monetization prospects supports the positive outlook. As a result, Garre maintains an Outperform rating with a target price of $180, reflecting confidence in Sea Ltd’s continued growth trajectory.
In another report released yesterday, Macquarie also maintained a Buy rating on the stock with a $219.90 price target.
