It looks fairly valued based on its growth rate, right?</p>\n<p>Generally speaking, yes. However, when one looks at the company’s gross margin of 16%, this valuation multiple looks a little less rosy. To put that in perspective, Amazon’s gross margin is around 40%, while Alibaba’s is at 43%. It’s going to have to produce roughly 2.5-times as many sales to get to the same level of profitability over time.</p>\n<p>Now, Coupang has spent a lot of money building out its logistics infrastructure and its delivery network in Korea.

In other words, there’s no real value-based reason for owning this company over Amazon or Alibaba for those eager e-commerce investors out there. At least not at this price.</p>\n<p>Yes, I do think Coupang’s numbers are likely to improve over time. It’s hard to use backward-looking data to assess what the future will hold.
