Is WiseTech Global (ASX:WTC) A Bargain As Earnings And Guidance Improve?

WiseTech Global (ASX:WTC) is back in focus after reporting record revenue growth tied to the e2open integration, updated guidance for FY27, and a higher final dividend, all discussed in its 2026 earnings call.

Despite a sharp 1-day share price decline of around 10% to A$40.89 following the earnings call and ACCC update, WiseTech Global has seen strong recent momentum with a 30-day share price return of 27.30%. However, its 1-year total shareholder return is down 59.79% and 5-year total shareholder return is down 14.66%, pointing to a stock that is still rebuilding confidence after a weaker longer run.

WiseTech Global shares are now trading well below the average analyst target and at a smaller discount to one intrinsic estimate. After the earnings jolt and ACCC update, where does a reasonable fair value range sit now?

Most Popular Narrative: 37.8% Undervalued

WiseTech Global’s most followed valuation narrative places fair value at A$65.71, which is well above the last close of A$40.89, and frames the current discount through a detailed long term earnings path.

The rollout of the new unified, transaction-based CargoWise commercial model (the “Value Pack”), which removes seat-based pricing and bundles advanced AI-driven workflow and management engines, is expected to accelerate market penetration, reduce adoption friction, and open the SME market, resulting in significant recurring revenue uplift and higher customer retention as user engagement scales with transaction volumes.

Want to see what kind of revenue runway this pricing shift aims to capture? The fair value hinges on faster top line growth, wider margins and a richer earnings multiple coming together over time.

The narrative backing this A$65.71 estimate uses a discount rate of 8.9% to bring projected cash flows back to today. It assumes WiseTech Global can compound revenue and earnings at a pace that supports a higher profit base and a still elevated P/E multiple in a few years, even from the current annual revenue of A$1,069.7m and net income of A$162.4m.

Against that backdrop, the current share price implies a discount of 37.8% to this fair value. That gap reflects both the ambitious growth and margin assumptions in the narrative and the market’s more cautious stance after a 59.79% decline in 1 year total shareholder return and a 14.66% decline over 5 years.

Result: Fair Value of A$65.71 (UNDERVALUED)

Have a read of the narrative in full and understand what’s behind the forecasts.

However, WiseTech Global still carries execution risks, especially around the complex E2open integration and the shift to transaction based pricing, which could pressure margins if adoption disappoints.

While the popular WiseTech Global narrative points to a 37.8% discount to fair value, the current P/E of 60.3x looks expensive next to both the Australian Software industry at 20x and a fair ratio of 42.1x. Could this premium narrow if sentiment or growth expectations cool?
