EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Verdict: AVOID
Baidu is a technology speculation, not a value investment. The company is experiencing a permanent structural erosion of its core economic engine (Search) while aggressively funneling capital into highly competitive, capital-intensive future industries (AI, Robotaxis). With a 2.5% ROIC, plunging Free Cash Flow (-226%), and a deteriorating moat against closed-ecosystem super-apps, Baidu offers no predictable future cash flows. Under Warren Buffett’s framework, an unpredictable business with poor capital efficiency provides zero margin of safety.
