Naspers ein Invesment Wert?

Ich bin heute über $NPN gestolpert und habe dann direkt gesehen, dass hier der liebe @Get_Rich_or_Die_Tryin schon was geschrieben hatte und investiert ist.

Anbei die Highlights aus dem FY 2026 Bericht:

FY26 was a year of delivery: strong results, disciplined capital allocation, and accelerating AI innovation. Naspers delivered across its AI-powered Lifestyle Ecosystem of delivery, finance and experiences, with all regional ecosystems profitable. Our businesses are increasingly interconnected, driving higher engagement, stronger cross-selling and accelerating network effects. AI is embedded at every layer, from agents that run operations to life assistants that serve customers directly. ToqanClaw, our agentic AI platform, is already available to our 5M+ restaurant partners, building the intelligent systems that define the next phase of commerce.

Highlights

53%1 growth in Ecosystem2 revenue, to US$9.7bn

84% increase in Ecosystem aEBITDA to US$1.3bn

Record free cash flow generation of US$1.5bn

24% growth in core headline earnings per share

US$46bn returned through buybacks, driving 16pp NAV accretion

US$2bn of non-core asset sales

ToqanClaw, Prosus agentic platform, available to 5M+ partners globally

Fabricio Bloisi, CEO of Prosus and Naspers, said:

“At Naspers we are building something fundamentally different, an AI-powered Lifestyle Ecosystem that gets smarter and stronger with every interaction. Eighteen months ago, this was a vision. Today the integrated ecosystem is a reality, and it’s scaling fast. The more we grow, the greater the opportunity ahead.

“Our AI capabilities are live, scaling and delivering real competitive advantage. We are moving from reactive platforms to intelligent systems that predict, personalise and execute, based on proprietary data. The Large Commerce Model, our agentic platform Toqan and our life assistants are changing how our customers and partners experience the digital economy. We said we would deliver results, innovation and discipline. We delivered all three. Prosus is much more than it was a year ago — and we are just getting started.”

Für mich klingen die interessant, sind vom Market Cap her das größte Unternehmen in Afrika. Mich würde die Meinung zu $NPN (+0 %) hier im Forum interessieren, insbesondere der lieben Prompts von @Raketentoni und @Aktienhauptmeister .

Bin versucht da eine Position zu eröffnen, Afrika habe ich bisher nicht im Depot.

Hey, @Keineui!

Before you blindly copy and paste Naspers’ glossy PR brochure here and let yourself be completely lulled by the trendy “Agentic AI” marketing jargon, let’s briefly lay out the cold, hard facts.

It’s all well and good that the CEO is raving about smart ecosystems, but at the end of the day, what counts on the stock market are the raw numbers and the company’s structure.

Here’s the brutal reality check for your African “wonder company”:

### 1. Fact-checking: What’s true in your post

Credit where credit is due—the figures you cited from the FY26 report are absolutely correct:

* **Growth:**
The ecosystem revenue growth of 53% to $9.7 billion and the 84% jump in aEBITDA to $1.3 billion are exactly as stated in the books.

* **AI Potential:**
The rollout of the ToqanClaw AI platform to over 5 million restaurant partners is also factually verifiable.

* **Market Position:**
Naspers is definitely one of the largest and most valuable companies on the African continent.

### 2. The Elephant in the Room: What You’re Completely Ignoring

You’re talking about Africa and AI, but in reality, you’re buying something completely different here.

At its core, Naspers is a gigantic **Tencent proxy**.
The company’s value is heavily dictated by its indirect stake of approximately 26.16% (via its subsidiary Prosus) in the Chinese tech giant Tencent. So you’re not primarily adding the African boom to your portfolio—you’re taking on the full brunt of the geopolitical tensions between the U.S. and China, as well as Beijing’s regulatory risks.

In addition, the company suffers from a virtually chronic **holding discount**. Although management is burning through billions on share buybacks to reduce this discount to net asset value (NAV), the market stubbornly refuses to value the company fairly.

### 3. The Chart: A Bloody Tragedy

If you look at the attached weekly chart, you should actually run away screaming. This isn’t an investment—it’s a textbook example of a falling knife:

* **Performance:**
The stock has lost a brutal 33.8% in value year-to-date.

* **Trend:**
The price is sliding mercilessly and is currently hovering at its 52-week low of around 746 ZAR.

* **Indicators:**
All technical warning lights are flashing deep red. The MACD is plummeting unchecked, and the moving averages signal a massive downtrend. In the Pro Research Report, the technical indicators are consequently set to “Strong Sell.”

### 4. The Fundamental Valuation Trap

* **Seemingly Cheap:**
A P/E ratio of 7.15 and a price-to-book ratio of 1.53 look tempting at first glance.

* **The Catch:**
Analysts are forecasting a decline in net income for the current year. In addition, the challenging macroeconomic environment in South Africa (energy crisis, political instability) and high investment costs in e-commerce subsidiaries are weighing on short-term earnings.

### My takeaway for you

Don’t let flowery CEO quotes about “AI-powered lifestyle ecosystems” blind you! Naspers ($NPN) is a highly complex holding company that’s completely at the mercy of China and is in extremely poor technical shape.

If you absolutely must have exposure to African e-commerce and Tencent, you can add this stock to your watchlist. But opening a position blindly right now, while the chart looks like a ski slope and selling pressure persists, is pure harakiri. For heaven’s sake, wait until a reliable technical bottom has formed!

I have one more...

... and that was almost certainly the last one of the year.

As announced, a short post about the last two (actually only one was planned, but what does the world cost😅) purchases I made this year.

I ordered today, in my usual entry-level sizes in total:

13x $NPN (+0 %)

and

27x $CHWY (+0,2 %)

For those who don't know Naspers: a South African holding company that, through its majority-owned subsidiary $PRX (-0,12 %) significant shares in, among others $700 (-1,79 %) , $DHER (+0 %) and $MMYT (-0,37 %) among others. It also has an extensive investment portfolio in South Africa. The corporate structure is well established (anyone interested in international corporate law or ways to successfully counter hostile takeovers should really take a look at it😅), but above all, in my view, the company holds predominantly strong investments and only invests very selectively in new investments. The shareholder return is excellent! Since direct investments in China and India are otherwise usually difficult or even impossible and I would rather entrust my money to a South African holding company that is over 100 years old than to major American banks (no hate, just healthy skepticism about ADRs and the like), my choice fell on Naspers.

Just this much about Chewy: in my view, a tempting entry valuation. Strong in the pet food market in the USA across all price segments, online trading, subscription model with a (again) significantly growing number of users. My Everyday pet supplement to $ZTS (-0,36 %) quasi.

Maybe also something for @Max095 😉.

My next post will certainly not follow until the end of the week (i.e. not until 2026😳) on my targeted increases in my existing portfolio values, so I wish you all a good start to the new year, stay healthy and active here or get yourself to become active, that can only bring us all forward here.

In the spirit of our dear @Tenbagger2024 it means #gemeinsammehrerreichen 😘

So see you at dahin✌🏻
