Yatsen Holding Limited Stock Value Grade

Value Grade:

Metric Rank YSG Sector Median
Price/Sales 3 0.06 0.78
Price/Earnings na na 19.0
EV/EBITDA na na 11.3
Shareholder Yield 63 (2.9%) 0.5%
Price/Book Value 10 0.61 2.04
Price/Free Cash Flow na 27.9

Buying stocks that are going to go up typically means buying stocks that are undervalued in the first place, although momentum investors may argue that point.

AAII’s A+ Investor Value Grade is derived from a stock’s value score. The value score is the percentile rank of the average of the percentile ranks of the price-to-sales ratio, price-earnings ratio, enterprise-value-to-EBITDA (EV/EBITDA) ratio, shareholder yield, price-to-book-value ratio and price-to-free-cash-flow ratio. The score is variable, meaning it can consider all six ratios or, should any of the six ratios not be valid, the remaining ratios that are valid. To be assigned a Value Score, stocks must have a valid (non-null) ratio and corresponding ranking for at least two of the six valuation ratios.

Stocks with a Value Score from 81 to 100 are considered deep value, those with a score between 61 and 80 are a good value and so on.

Yatsen Holding Limited has a Value Score of 90, which is Deep Value.

Yatsen Holding Limited Stock Momentum Grade

Momentum Grade:

Metric Score YSG Sector Median
Relative Price Strength (Q1) 31 (13.0%) (6.8%)
Relative Price Strength (Q2) 13 (33.1%) (11.6%)
Relative Price Strength (Q3) 18 (23.8%) 0.8%
Relative Price Strength (Q4) 5 (48.5%) (12.3%)
Relative Price Strength (weighted 4 qtr) 8 (26.3%) (5.2%)

Momentum grades help uncover stocks experiencing anomalously high rates of return; research finds that stocks with high relative levels of momentum tend to outperform, whereas those with low levels of momentum tend to continue underperforming. Momentum is based on the price change of a stock over a specified period relative to all other stocks.

Typically, AAII looks at the weighted relative strength over the trailing four quarters. The weighted four-quarter relative strength rank is the relative price change for each of the past four quarters. The most recent quarterly price change is given a weight of 40% and each of the three previous quarters are given a weighting of 20%.

Yatsen Holding Limited has a Momentum Score of 8, which is Very Weak.

Yatsen Holding Limited Stock Earnings Estimate Revisions Grade

Estimate Revisions Grade:

Metric Score YSG Sector Median
Quarterly Surprise SUE Latest Qtr na na 1.2
Quarterly Surprise SUE Prior Qtr na na 1.5
EPS Est Current Year % Rev Last Month na na 0.0%
EPS Est Current Year % Rev 3 Mos na na (0.1%)

The Earnings Estimate Revisions Score considers the magnitude of a company’s earnings surprise in its last two reported fiscal quarters. Often, positive surprises beget further positive surprises‐or at least continued sales growth (the exact opposite is generally true, too).

Estimate revisions offer an indication of what analysts are thinking about the short-term prospects of a firm. The Earnings Estimate Revisions Score is based on the statistical significance of a firm’s last two quarterly earnings surprises and the percentage change in its consensus estimate for the current fiscal year over the past month and past three months.

Yatsen Holding Limited does not have enough analyst coverage to have a meaningful Earnings Estimate Score.
