Reverse DCF

What growth is priced into SE?

CHEAP

At today's price, Sea Limited American Depositary Shares each representing one Class A needs to grow free cash flow about -20.0% a year for the next 10 years to justify its valuation at a 11.96% cost of capital. Over its actual history it has compounded free cash flow at 85.4% a year, so the market is asking for 105.4 percentage points below its own delivered rate. On that basis SE looks priced below what its own growth record supports.

Sea Limited American Depositary Shares each representing one Class A is currently running 28.5% annualised volatility over the last 21 sessions. Measured against SE's own 9 years of daily returns rather than a market-wide average, that is the 4th percentile — unusually subdued by its own history, against a typical reading of 50.6%. The distinction matters because a number that looks calm for one stock is turbulent for another, and the absolute figure on its own tells you neither.

SE is trading -73.6% below its running peak. Across 8 full years on file, its median worst-drawdown-in-a-year was -37.2%, and the deepest was -81.7% in 2022. The current drawdown is already deeper than this stock's typical annual low point, which puts it in the part of its range where past recoveries began — and where past declines also continued.

Price sits -6.0% from its 200-day moving average. Against every other day in its history, that gap ranks at the 32nd percentile — close to the gap it normally carries. Over the past year SE closed higher on 45% of sessions, and it is currently 1 session into a rising streak.

On October specifically: over 8 years of records, SE finished the month higher 1 of 8 times, with a median return of -4.7% and an average of -5.1%. Its strongest month historically has been May at +10.9% on average, its weakest October at -5.1%. Seasonality is a weak signal on its own — a decade is a small sample and regimes change — but it is a real distribution rather than a rule of thumb.

Overnight risk is measurable too: SE has opened more than 2% away from the prior close in 177 of 2,249 sessions (7.9% of the time), with the largest gaps running +7.6% and -13.6%. For anyone holding through an event, that rate is a better guide to overnight exposure than the intraday range.

All figures computed from 2,250 daily closes between 2017-10-20 and 2026-10-05, split-adjusted, recomputed daily. Percentiles are against SE's own 9-year history, not a peer group or index.
