VinFast falls 42% to Fair Value target as InvestingPro predicted
Vietnamese electric vehicle manufacturer VinFast (NASDAQ:VFS) experienced a 42.49% decline, reaching a Fair Value target of $3.03 in July 2026, according to InvestingPro's predictions. In February 2024, when the stock traded at $5.26, the Fair Value analysis identified VinFast as significantly overvalued, estimating its intrinsic worth at $3.36.
The company, backed by conglomerate Vingroup, entered 2024 with high expectations despite concerning financials, reporting $1.15 billion in revenue and negative EBITDA of $1.42 billion and earnings per share of -$1.07. InvestingPro's Fair Value models revealed critical issues such as negative gross margins, high production costs, and intense global competition.
With a financial health score of 0.71, the fundamentals did not justify the elevated valuation. When shares were $5.26, VinFast was trading at a 35.57% premium to its intrinsic value. The analysis proved accurate as the stock steadily declined over the next two years, ultimately hitting the predicted Fair Value. As of August 2026, shares were trading slightly above Fair Value at $3.17.
