A Look at Microvast Holdings (MVST) Valuation Following Q3 Results and Updated Growth Guidance

Microvast Holdings (MVST) has released its third quarter 2025 results, revealing higher year-over-year revenue and a shift from a net profit last year to a net loss this quarter. The company is also keeping its annual revenue growth forecast unchanged.

See our latest analysis for Microvast Holdings.

Microvast Holdings’ Q3 financials landed just as the stock has been experiencing major swings. After a huge rally earlier in the year, its 1-month share price return now stands at -40.5%. Despite this recent volatility, long-term investors have seen a remarkable 1-year total shareholder return of 520.7%, suggesting that momentum, though choppy, is still strong relative to prior years. The combination of robust revenue growth and the latest impairment charges is clearly prompting a reevaluation of both risk and opportunity.

With shares still trading at a notable discount to analyst targets, but recent losses weighing on sentiment, investors now have to ask if Microvast is an overlooked bargain or if the market already anticipates future growth.

Most Popular Narrative: 44.6% Undervalued

The latest narrative sets Microvast Holdings' fair value at $6.50, which is well above its last close of $3.60. This gap is fueling renewed debate among investors about the company’s upside potential compared to recent market prices.

Strategic capacity expansion, including the new 2 GWh line at the Huzhou facility scheduled for Q4 2025, enables Microvast to capture accelerating order flow from the global electrification push. This expansion directly supports volume growth and operating leverage and is likely to enhance future revenue and gross margins.

Looking through a different lens, Microvast trades at a 2.6x price-to-sales ratio. This is much higher than both the industry average of 1.8x and its peers at 0.7x, suggesting the stock is relatively expensive on this basis. However, compared to the fair ratio of 3.6x, there is still room before shares could be considered truly overvalued. Is the market overpricing growth, or is it seeing real upside others might miss?
