$Sea Ltd(SE)$ Is it worth to invest in SEA now?

SEA price between $50-$55 is worth the risk to owns it. As current Sea's liabilities are manageable, even though they are more than its cash and near-term receivables combined. This is because market capitalization is a more comprehensive measure of a company's value than its cash and near-term receivables. Market capitalization takes into account the company's assets, liabilities, and future earnings potential.

In Sea's case, its market capitalization of US$32.9 billion is more than 15 times its liabilities of US$2.22 billion. This suggests that investors believe that Sea has the ability to repay its liabilities and still have a significant amount of value left over.

According to the analysts' price projection, Sea Limited (SE) is expected to have earnings of $0.63 per share in the next quarter. The range of estimates is from $0.27 to $0.82. The previous quarter's EPS was $0.15. SE has beaten its EPS estimate 75% of the time in the past 12 months, while its overall industry beat the EPS estimate 61.6% of the time in the same period. In the last calendar year SE has outperformed its overall industry.

There are a few reasons why analysts are bullish on SE's earnings for the next quarter. First, the company's e-commerce business, Shopee, is growing rapidly in Southeast Asia. In the first quarter of 2023, Shopee's gross merchandise volume (GMV) grew 50% year-over-year to $17.1 billion. Second, SE's gaming business, Garena, is also doing well. In the first quarter of 2023, Garena's revenue grew 33% year-over-year to $2.9 billion.

Overall, analysts believe that SE is a well-positioned company to continue to grow its earnings in the next quarter and beyond. The company has a strong track record of beating analyst expectations, and its businesses are growing rapidly in Southeast Asia. As a result, the median analyst price target for SE is $94.34, which represents a potential upside of over 70% from the current price.

    Sea is still a bargain right now. According to my valuation, the intrinsic value for the stock is $92.85, but it is currently trading at 57.74 on the share market, meaning that there is still an opportunity to buy now.

    I think the upside chance is much higher than downside risk at this price point, they can’t suppress this stock forever. Even Zacks has change the ranking for SE from strong sell to hold. Just be patience.

    Given the recent run up, a very normal consolidation day with the sp holding $62 strong. Definitely going to keep moving up. Any positive news would spring this past $65 towards $70+. Enjoy your weekend

    A ton of 63 calls expiring Friday. They will try to keep this under 63. As long as we close the week over 60 were in very good shape. Options are really messing with this stock up until earnings.

    Still an absolute steal below 70$. I already have a monstrous position so I'm not adding more above 60$ but for anyone interested in this company I think this is a perfect opportunity to invest.

    picked up SE at 61 this week. Hopefully l got in at right period. I have followed this stock before COVID and l couldn’t buy it then due to valuation.
