business continued to slow down in the third quarter. <\/p>\n<p>Its revenue came in at $15.2 billion in the third quarter, up by 9% YoY, with the company pointing to the competitive environment.<\/p>\n<p>On the positive side, the company\u2019s profitability grew in the third quarter as the company slashed its marketing spending. <\/p>\n<p>It made RMB 29 billion in net income, up by 17% from what it made in the same period last year.<\/p>\n<p>Wall Street analysts expect the upcoming results to show that the company\u2019s fourth quarter revenue will be CNY 124 billion, up by 12.9%. <\/p>\n<p>This revenue will bring its annual figure to over CNY 432 billion, up by 9.75%.<\/p>\n<p>On the positive side, the company has become a bargain, especially because of its strong market share and balance sheet. <\/p>\n<p>It ended the last quarter with nearly $60 billion in cash and equivalent, a notable amount for a company with a market capitalisation of over $147 billion.<\/p>\n<p>PDD trades at a forward price-to-earnings (PE) ratio of 9.36, much lower than the sector median of 14. <\/p>\n<p>Its five-year average is 62, meaning that the company has become a significant bargain.<\/p>\n<p>Also, the forward EV-to-EBITDA has moved to 5.87, lower than the sector median of 9.37.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">PDD Holdings stock price technical analysis&nbsp;<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><\/figure>\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/symbols\/NASDAQ-PDD\/\">PDD share price chart<\/a> | Source: TradingView\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The weekly chart shows that the PDD share price has slumped in the past few months, moving from a high of $164 in May 2024 to the current $103.<\/p>\n<p>It has dropped below the ascending trendline that connects the lowest swings in May 2022, April 2025, and January 2025. <\/p>\n<p>Moving below that level is a sign that bears have prevailed.<\/p>\n<p>The stock has also formed a head-and-shoulders pattern and is now near the neckline. <\/p>\n<p>It has moved to the Ultimate Support level of the Murrey Math Lines tool.<\/p>\n<p>PDD Holdings has also dropped below the 100-week Exponential Moving Average.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, the stock will likely continue falling despite its low valuation. <\/p>\n<p>If this happens, the next key target to watch will be at the extremely oversold level of the Murrey Math Lines tool at $88.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/invezz.com\/news\/2026\/03\/17\/pdd-holdings-stock-becomes-a-bargain-before-earnings-buy-or-sell\/\">PDD Holdings stock becomes a bargain before earnings: buy or sell?<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/invezz.com\">Invezz<\/a><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PDD Holdings stock price remains under pressure this week as traders focus on the upcoming financial results.
