Brian Gong has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that suggest strong future performance for JOYY. The company has demonstrated a robust momentum in advertising, which is expected to continue growing and potentially become a significant long-term growth story. Additionally, JOYY’s live streaming segment is showing signs of stabilization with slight improvements, which is a positive indicator for the company’s future prospects.
Moreover, JOYY’s market capitalization remains below its net cash position, highlighting a strong financial standing. The company also offers an attractive annualized shareholder yield of approximately 11%, which is appealing compared to its peers in the live streaming industry. These factors, combined with a favorable valuation relative to other major live streaming companies, underpin Brian Gong’s decision to maintain a Buy rating on JOYY.
