Updated 358h ago·SEC filings & market data

Key Takeaway

At 1.1x, JD's EV/EBITDA — a measure of enterprise value relative to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization — indicates the company is valued at just over one times its operating earnings, which for a non-expert investor suggests a low valuation relative to earnings.

Deep Analysis

Compared to sector peers, this is far below the median of 13.9x, placing JD in the 7th percentile, meaning 93% of peers trade at higher multiples. The metric's trend over the last eight quarters is decreasing, though the year-over-year change is not available; quarter over quarter, it rose 22.3% from 0.9x to 1.1x. The combination of a very low EV/EBITDA and a generally decreasing trend could signal undervaluation, but the decline may also reflect falling earnings or rising debt, with the recent quarterly uptick leaving the direction unclear. This mixed picture — a deep discount versus peers paired with a negative long-term trend — neither strongly supports nor contradicts the overall NEUTRAL verdict, as the low multiple offers potential opportunity while the trend warrants caution.
