Questions

Which companies are Gym's closest peers?
The cockpit's peer set: Guilin Tourism (000978.SZ), Carriage Services (CSV), ZJBC Information Technology (000889.SZ), IDP Education (IEL.AX), Mahindra Holidays & Resorts India (MHRIL.NS), Rainbow Tours (RBW.WA), Beijing Jingxi Culture and Tourism (000802.SZ), Youngy Health (300247.SZ).
Is Gym expensive compared with its peers?
On forward p/e it trades at 35.6× against a peer median of 12.2×, most expensive of 14 in its peer set. For today's price to make sense, revenue must grow about 12% a year for seven years (Req g). Recent delivered growth is +25%, so the hurdle is -13 pp: the price already allows for a slowdown.
How has Gym stock performed?
Over six months to 6 Nov 2026 the shares returned +1.3% against -13.5% for the median peer; over one year +38.7%.

How these numbers are made. Returns are close-to-close in local currency. Revenue growth and margins are trailing twelve months. Req g is the revenue growth that today's enterprise value requires for seven years at the company's own cost of capital; Delivered g is what it actually grew; the gap is the hurdle (honest precision about ±8 points, so read the ranking more than the decimal). No fair values, price targets or analyst ratings are shown, by design. Method and validation.
