ZEEKR IPO Valuation Analysis: Next BYD or Tesla?

By Andrei Zakharov

  • ZEEKR is expected to IPO in December. The company plans to raise up to $1B and Geely Auto may purchase additional shares of ZEEKR in a concurrent private placement.
  • I have a favorable view of the upcoming ZEEKR U.S. IPO and value ZEEKR shares using a 50/50 blend of EV/Sales analysis and long-term discounted cash flows analysis.
  • ZEEKR’s last round was a $750M Series A in February 2023 at a $13B post-money valuation. My ~$21B target valuation suggests 61% potential upside vs. last round valuation of $13B.
