Polen Capital made the following comment about Autohome Inc. (NYSE:ATHM) in its third-quarter 2022 investor letter:

“Autohome Inc. (NYSE:ATHM) is China’s leading online car classified company. The stock performed well in the second quarter; however, it has continued to be hindered by reaction to a combination of macro factors, irrespective of the actual direct impact. The company posted satisfactory quarterly revenues and earnings, which were below the same period last year. While earnings have softened as the global chip shortage weighed on new car sales, we expect the company to return to the earnings growth levels it has historically delivered. The share price weakness has left it trading at levels we consider very attractive.”
