  • BYD (SEHK:1211) Faces Valuation Pressure After Fifth Consecutive Drop in EV Sales
    February 5, 2026, 8:17 PM EST. BYD (SEHK:1211) shares dipped 18% in Hong Kong after January EV sales fell 30% year-on-year, marking the fifth straight monthly decline. The electric vehicle (EV) maker's stock trades at HK$91.25, well below a narrative-derived fair value of HK$180, suggesting undervaluation. However, BYD's price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 19.3 exceeds the Asian auto industry average of 18 and peers' 8.4, raising valuation risk. The company's recent share price returns show signs of fading momentum, with a 7-day return of 10.36% and a one-year total shareholder return of 12.36%. Analysts caution that risks such as higher tariffs, power shortages, or a shift back to hybrids could impact long-term EV demand and BYD's growth outlook. Investors weigh whether current pessimism prices in all growth prospects or signals deeper challenges.
