Earnings Report: Why Wall Street Hates Sea Limited’s 2026 Guidance | Q4 2025
Fundamental Deep DiveMar 15, 2026
The analysis of Sea Limited's (SE) Q4 2025 earnings report reveals a paradox: record backward-looking performance contrasted with an 18% stock price drop. The sell-off is attributed to Sea's forward guidance, specifically Shopee's commitment to reinvesting profits into physical infrastructure (logistics) rather than immediate margin expansion, and potential risks in Sea Money's rapidly growing credit portfolio, evidenced by a significant increase in credit loss provisions. Garina's strong cash flow generation is identified as the funding source for these aggressive strategies.
