Is Chewy (CHWY) Undervalued On Raised Guidance And Stronger Sales?

Simply Wall St · 1d ago

Chewy (CHWY) has investors’ attention after its latest quarter, where adjusted earnings matched forecasts, net sales came in ahead of expectations, and management lifted guidance following growth in Autoship subscriptions and AI-driven efficiencies.

Chewy’s recent guidance lift comes after a tough stretch for holders, with the stock down 41.15% on a year to date share price basis and the 1 year total shareholder return slipping 48.55%. However, the 3 year total shareholder return is positive at 7.35%, which suggests recent momentum is only just starting to rebuild after a longer period of pressure.

Spot opportunities that mirror Chewy’s combination of challenges and potential by scanning our hand-picked list of 30 high quality undervalued stocks.

Chewy recently raised its guidance, while the share price is still recovering from a steep multiyear decline. Is this an opportune time to invest now, or does it make more sense to wait for a clearer valuation before entering?

Most Popular Narrative: 31% Undervalued

Chewy’s most followed narrative puts fair value at $28.64 per share, compared with a last close of $19.71. This frames today’s price as a sizeable discount built on earnings, margin and pet health assumptions that still need to play out.

The current valuation implies the market is not fully pricing in Chewy’s mix shift toward recurring Autoship revenue, pet healthcare earnings and ongoing margin expansion. This narrative treats that mix shift as an undervalued setup for the share price.

See why 75 investors see Chewy as 31% undervalued.

Result: Fair Value of $28.64 (UNDERVALUED)

Still, if premium treats and other discretionary items remain under pressure and softer consumer spending persists, the Chewy narrative could appear overly optimistic.
