DBS cuts Sea target as Shopee spending weighs on profit growth

Fri, 02 Oct 2026 07:57:11 -0400

Investing.com -- DBS Group Research downgraded Southeast Asian e-commerce, gaming and fintech company Sea Ltd to “hold” from “buy” and cut its 12-month price target to $105 from $148, citing risks that Shopee’s investments to strengthen its market position could slow profit-margin growth in 2027.

The broker expects several investments to weigh on Shopee’s profitability next year, including Pinduoduo’s expansion into Southeast Asia, Shopee’s quick-commerce push and its continued VIP programme.

DBS forecasts Sea’s 2027 e-commerce adjusted EBITDA 5% below consensus and group adjusted EBITDA 6% below consensus, partly due to spending on Migoo AI.

Pinduoduo Inc. (PDD) PT Raised to $117 at BofA Securities

Wed, 26 Aug 2026 14:11:22 -0400

BofA Securities analyst Joyce Ju raised the price target on Pinduoduo Inc. (NASDAQ: PDD) to $117.00 (from $113.00) while maintaining a Neutral rating.

The analyst comments "Revenue missed as Temu slowed amid regulatory and international headwinds, while profit beat on better high-margin OMS revenue and substantial investment income. OMS growth accelerated to 3.5% YoY from 2.5% in 1Q26, despite slowing industry and peer growth. We estimate GMV growth moderated to 8% from 11% last quarter, while take-rate pressure eased meaningfully as the RMB100bn support program approached its first anniversary. We forecast OMS growth of 6.7% in 3Q and take-rate stabilization in

Freedom Broker analyst Roman Lukianchikov lowered the price target on Pinduoduo Inc. (NASDAQ: PDD) to $150.00 (from $160.00) while maintaining a Buy rating.

The analyst comments "The company delivered mixed results. Weak domestic demand in China and intensifying competition continue to constrain business growth, while increased investments in merchant support, logistics, and ecosystem development are laying the groundwork for stronger competitive positioning over the long term. At the same time, regulatory pressure and rising logistics costs in overseas markets are increasing the importance of maintaining Temu’s price advantage, adding uncertainty around the pace of the company’s international expansion.

Pinduoduo Inc. (PDD) PT Lowered to $114 at Benchmark on Cautious Near-Term View

Tue, 25 Aug 2026 08:56:09 -0400

(Updated - August 25, 2026 8:56 AM EDT)

Benchmark analyst Fawne Jiang lowered the price target on Pinduoduo Inc. (NASDAQ: PDD) to $114.00 (from $127.00) while maintaining a Buy rating.

The analyst commented, "PDD’s 2Q26 results reinforced our cautious near-term view, with the topline missing expectations amid continued growth challenges across both domestic, where merchant support and ecosystem investment are constraining monetization, and international, where an increasingly fluid regulatory and trade environment is creating additional headwinds. Profitability was better than feared in 2Q, but investment remains a core strategic priority, leaving the pace of both growth and earnings recovery difficult to gauge.

US Tiger Securities Reiterates Hold Rating on Pinduoduo Inc. (PDD)

Mon, 24 Aug 2026 11:18:30 -0400

US Tiger Securities analyst Bo Pei reiterated a Hold rating and $100.00 price target on Pinduoduo Inc. (NASDAQ: PDD).

The analyst commented: "PDD reported a mixed 2Q26, with revenue modestly below our expectations but profitability stronger, driven by a better-than-expected gross margin. Revenue increased 8% y/y to RMB112.4bn, while non-GAAP operating profit rose 5% to RMB29.1bn. However, the quarter did little to change our broader view on the business: domestic monetization remains subdued, investment in merchant support and supply-chain capabilities is set to continue, and overseas operations are entering a more costly localization phase as the regulatory environment evolves.
