Webull’s shares trade at 5.5x TTM sales after a 30% drop while Q3 revenue rose 55% year-over-year alongside record net deposits and customer assets. It delivered a 15.6% GAAP operating margin, cut marketing spend 40%, and trades at just over 10x free cash flow with 20% adjusted margins.
1. Valuation Reset Sparks Upgrade
Shares of Webull (BULL) now trade at just 5.5x trailing twelve-month sales following a 30% pullback in the common stock. This reset contrasts sharply with the company’s rapid fundamental improvement; analysts have raised their outlook as the valuation multiple sits well below peer digital brokerage averages. The more attractive entry multiple reflects growing confidence in Webull’s ability to sustain high growth while leveraging its fixed-cost base.
2. Third-Quarter Operational Momentum
In Q3, BULL delivered 55% year-over-year revenue growth, driven by strong trading volumes and new product adoption. The company reported a 15.55% GAAP operating profit margin and posted record net client deposits and customer assets. Operating leverage became evident as adjusted operating expenses rose just 13% year-on-year versus the outsized top-line expansion. Marketing spend was cut by 40%, underscoring disciplined cost management even as the user base expands.
3. Strong Cash Flow and Future Growth Drivers
Webull trades at a free cash flow multiple slightly above 10x, supported by a robust balance sheet with ample liquidity and no near-term debt maturities. Adjusted operating margins have consistently hovered around 20%, positioning BULL to convert incremental revenue into cash. Growth catalysts include the launch of new asset classes, expansion of wealth-management services and forays into international markets. Management’s goal to double both revenue and market capitalization within five years appears achievable under current projections.
