Our model rates SE Favorable (63/100) on growth, profitability, financial health, and valuation. The summary below is built from its filed financials and current ratios and refreshes automatically.
Evidence of durable competitive advantage in the filed financials (10 years of history).
Some durable-advantage evidence, but not across the board — dig into which ingredient is weak and whether it's cyclical or structural.
50.7% average over the last 3 years
±14.7 pts around 34.7% across 10 years
grew in 8 of the last 9 year-over-year periods
positive in 4 of 10 years
13.0% latest fiscal year
A moat can't be proven by numbers alone — this scores the evidence a durable advantage leaves behind (pricing power, consistency, returns on capital), computed the same way for every stock. Pair it with the business overview before concluding anything.
Technical analysis reads price and volume to judge momentum and timing. It complements the fundamentals above — it does not replace them. Here is what SE's chart says today, with each tool explained.
Trend — moving averages. A moving average is the average closing price over a window, which smooths out daily noise. SE trades near $106.16, around its 50-day average ($89.40) and 200-day average ($118.22). Price tangled in its moving averages means there is no clear trend — the stock is ranging.
Momentum — RSI. The Relative Strength Index runs 0–100 and measures how strong recent gains are versus losses. Above 70 is "overbought", below 30 "oversold". At 82 it is overbought — the recent rally is stretched and can cool off.
MACD. MACD compares two moving averages to flag shifts in momentum. Its histogram is currently positive — short-term momentum is improving.
Volatility — ATR. Average True Range is the typical daily move. SE's is $4.83 (~4.5% of price), so swings of about that size each day are normal — handy for setting a stop that isn't too tight.
Support & resistance. Over the last month SE found buyers near $80.80 (support) and sellers near $106.20 (resistance); its 52-week range is $77.05–$199.30. A decisive break beyond either edge often marks the next move.
Volume. The latest session traded 0.6× the 20-day average — lighter than usual, so the move carries less conviction. Rising volume on up-days suggests real buying; on down-days, real selling.

4Y CAGR
18.5%
Revenue moved from $345.67M in 2016 to $19.63B in 2025, a 56.6% compound annual growth rate. The most recent year grew a strong 40.5% year over year. Consistent top-line growth is one sign of healthy demand.

Net Debt / EBITDA

Debt / Equity
0.15x
Leverage: debt-to-equity is 0.2x, and operating profit covers interest about 59.1x, with a current ratio of 1.6x. That is a conservative balance sheet — a cushion in downturns. It carries roughly $1.03M of total debt against $4.16B of cash.
Operating CF
$5.02B
Free Cash Flow
$4.51B
FCF Margin
23.0%
In the latest year Sea Ltd produced about $5.02B of operating cash flow and $4.51B of free cash flow after capital spending. That is a free-cash-flow yield of about 1.9% on today's price. Cash flow is what ultimately pays shareholders, so it is worth tracking over time.
P/E
39.47x
P/S
2.76x
P/B
6.07x
EV / EBITDA
25.07x
SE trades at 39.5x trailing earnings (about 28.2x on estimated forward earnings), 2.8x sales, and 6.1x book value. Reverse-engineering today's price implies the market expects roughly 1.7% long-term free-cash-flow growth. That is a premium multiple that needs growth to justify it.

Educational model on sample fundamentals — not a forecast or investment advice. Outputs are only as good as your assumptions.
The case for SE:
- Revenue is growing 40.5% a year, a sign of real demand.
- A conservative balance sheet (debt/equity 0.2x) lowers risk.
- Our model's overall read is Favorable (63/100).
The case against SE:
- Like any single stock, it is exposed to competition, the economic cycle, and shifts in its end markets.
Valuation risk — at 39.5x earnings, disappointing results could compress the multiple.
Market risk — sector rotation, the economic cycle, and broad sentiment move the stock regardless of fundamentals.
On balance, the fundamentals screen favourably: Sea Ltd is a large-cap consumer discretionary business still growing nicely, with modest profitability, and a sound balance sheet. It trades at 39.5x earnings, which our model scores Favorable (63/100). Weigh this against your own goals and time horizon — this is educational information, not a recommendation.
