Gaotu Techedu: A 'Buy' On Q3 Outperformance And Attractive Buyback Yield
My "Buy" rating for Gaotu Techedu is unchanged, following my assessment of its quarterly performance and capital return prospects. GOTU's normalized net loss shrunk in 3Q2025, which also beat the consensus forecast. I estimate that the stock's potential buyback yield is 5.6%; it has the capacity to support future repurchases, considering its cash position and cash flow outlook.

Gaotu Techedu: Profitability Has Reached Bottom, Maintain 'Buy'
Gaotu's Q3 2024 revenue growth was robust at 53.1% YoY, but profitability declined due to heavy investments in workforce and marketing. Despite the stock's 11% drop post-earnings, I maintain a "buy" rating due to Gaotu's strong balance sheet and significant undervaluation. Management expects Q4 revenue growth of 69.2%-71.9% YoY, driven by aggressive offline expansion and diversified revenue streams.

Gaotu Techedu: Recent Sell-Off Creates Another Buying Opportunity
I maintain my "buy" rating for GOTU due to its significant undervaluation and potential for dramatic positive fundamental change. Gaotu's rapid offline expansion, especially in Guangzhou, positions it to capture market share from competitors like TAL and EDU. Exiting the loss-making Gaotu Jiapin business will enhance profitability starting Q4 2024, improving the company's financial outlook.
Gaotu Techedu: Profitability Concerns Overblown, Maintaining "Buy" Rating
Gaotu Techedu's Q2 2024 results showed strong revenue growth but significant net losses due to upfront expenses for future demand, validating my "buy" rating. Despite a 19% stock drop post-earnings, Gaotu's cash-rich balance sheet and share repurchase program offer strong downside protection and significant upside potential. Non-academic tutoring business surged, contributing over 20% of total revenues, indicating robust future growth regardless of Chinese government policies.
