Yalla Group: Robust Liquidity Levels To Give Impetus Into 2026
Yalla Group is a buy due to its strong financials, debt-free status, and significant cash reserves supporting strategic growth through 2026. The stock is undervalued, trading below peers on forward PE and EV/EBITDA, with a high free cash flow per share and active share repurchase program. YALA's share price has surged year-to-date, partly driven by its ongoing buyback initiative, with further upside expected as repurchases continue.
