NVIDIA’s decision to fully exit its position in SoundHound AI (SOUN) triggered a sharp market reaction, with the stock recently down 28% after the SEC filing, despite a series of positive operating announcements.

See our latest analysis for SoundHound AI.

At a share price of $5.90, SoundHound AI’s recent 1 month share price return of 31.4% and year to date share price return of 44.3% point to fading short term momentum, even though the 3 year total shareholder return of 113.8% still reflects a strong longer term outcome for investors willing to tolerate volatility.

With NVIDIA gone from the share register, SoundHound AI now trades at US$5.90, a fraction of the US$14.63 analyst target. This raises a key question for you: is this genuine upside, or is future growth already baked in?

Compared with the last close at $5.90, the most followed narrative on SoundHound AI points to a fair value of $28.58, a sizeable gap that rests on very specific growth and margin assumptions.

Even assuming a 15% annual dilution, a sector-conservative 20x valuation, and a high 8.53% cost of equity, Soundhound’s stock could be worth around $28.8 today.
