At €4.84, Is It Time To Put Altice Europe N.V. (AMS:ATC) On Your Watch List?

Altice Europe N.V. (AMS:ATC), which is in the media business, and is based in Netherlands, received a lot of attention from a substantial price movement on the ENXTAM over the last few months, increasing to €6.74 at one point, and dropping to the lows of €4.84. Some share price movements can give investors a better opportunity to enter into the stock, and potentially buy at a lower price. A question to answer is whether Altice Europe's current trading price of €4.84 reflective of the actual value of the mid-cap? Or is it currently undervalued, providing us with the opportunity to buy? Let’s take a look at Altice Europe’s outlook and value based on the most recent financial data to see if there are any catalysts for a price change.

What is Altice Europe worth?

Good news, investors! Altice Europe is still a bargain right now. According to my valuation, the intrinsic value for the stock is €7.56, which is above what the market is valuing the company at the moment. This indicates a potential opportunity to buy low. However, given that Altice Europe’s share is fairly volatile (i.e. its price movements are magnified relative to the rest of the market) this could mean the price can sink lower, giving us another chance to buy in the future. This is based on its high beta, which is a good indicator for share price volatility.

Can we expect growth from Altice Europe?

Future outlook is an important aspect when you’re looking at buying a stock, especially if you are an investor looking for growth in your portfolio. Although value investors would argue that it’s the intrinsic value relative to the price that matter the most, a more compelling investment thesis would be high growth potential at a cheap price. However, with an extremely negative double-digit change in profit expected over the next couple of years, near-term growth is certainly not a driver of a buy decision. It seems like high uncertainty is on the cards for Altice Europe, at least in the near future.

What this means for you:

Are you a shareholder? Although ATC is currently undervalued, the negative outlook does bring on some uncertainty, which equates to higher risk. Consider whether you want to increase your portfolio exposure to ATC, or whether diversifying into another stock may be a better move for your total risk and return.

Are you a potential investor? If you’ve been keeping tabs on ATC for some time, but hesitant on making the leap, I recommend you research further into the stock. Given its current undervaluation, now is a great time to make a decision. But keep in mind the risks that come with negative growth prospects in the future.
