So-Young shares validate InvestingPro’s undervalued call with 68% return

When InvestingPro’s Fair Value model identified So-Young International Inc. (NASDAQ:SY) as significantly undervalued in October 2024, it presented an opportunity that would yield impressive returns for investors. The model’s sophisticated approach to determining intrinsic value combines multiple valuation methodologies to help investors identify mispriced securities and make more informed investment decisions. For investors seeking similar opportunities, InvestingPro’s Most undervalued list continues to highlight potential value opportunities in today’s market.

So-Young International, a technology company operating in the digital healthcare space, operates a platform connecting consumers with healthcare service providers in China. When InvestingPro’s Fair Value models flagged the stock on October 16, 2024, the company was generating annual revenue of $212 million with positive EBITDA of $2.14 million. The stock had experienced mixed performance in the preceding months, creating an attractive entry point for value investors.

The Fair Value analysis indicated a significant mispricing, with the stock trading at $0.99 while the model estimated a fair value of $1.50, suggesting potential upside of 51.52%. This assessment proved remarkably accurate, as the stock has since appreciated to $1.66, delivering a total return of 67.68% over just eight months. The movement validates InvestingPro’s valuation methodology, which indicated the stock was trading well below its intrinsic value.

Recent developments have shown mixed signals, with the company reporting revenue declines in both Q4 2024 and Q1 2025. However, the market has recognized the underlying value proposition, as reflected in the stock’s strong performance. The company’s current market capitalization of $166.37 million suggests investors are pricing in potential future growth despite recent headwinds.

InvestingPro’s Fair Value methodology leverages a comprehensive approach that combines multiple valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis, comparable company analysis, and market-based metrics. This multi-faceted approach helps identify opportunities that might be overlooked by traditional single-metric valuations.

The success of this Fair Value call demonstrates the power of data-driven investment analysis. InvestingPro offers investors access to these valuable insights, along with real-time Fair Value alerts, financial health scores, and professional-grade analysis tools. As this case shows, having access to sophisticated valuation models can help investors identify profitable opportunities before the broader market recognizes them.
