undershoots
Misses by underestimating
Undershoots is the third-person singular of undershoot—to fall short of a target or intended mark.
An aircraft undershoots the runway when it lands before reaching the pavement.
A budget projection undershoots when actual figures exceed the estimate: The company consistently undershoots its revenue forecasts.
The opposite is overshoot.
