What's the opportunity in Valuetronics Holdings?

The stock seems fairly valued at the moment according to my valuation model. It’s trading around 1.1% below my intrinsic value, which means if you buy Valuetronics Holdings today, you’d be paying a reasonable price for it. And if you believe that the stock is really worth SGD0.56, then there isn’t much room for the share price grow beyond what it’s currently trading. What's more, Valuetronics Holdings’s share price may be more stable over time (relative to the market), as indicated by its low beta.

What does the future of Valuetronics Holdings look like?

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. Buying a great company with a robust outlook at a cheap price is always a good investment, so let’s also take a look at the company's future expectations. However, with a negative profit growth of -15% expected over the next couple of years, near-term growth certainly doesn’t appear to be a driver for a buy decision for Valuetronics Holdings. This certainty tips the risk-return scale towards higher risk.

What this means for you:

Are you a shareholder? BN2 seems fairly priced right now, but given the uncertainty from negative returns in the future, this could be the right time to de-risk your portfolio. Is your current exposure to the stock optimal for your total portfolio? And is the opportunity cost of holding a negative-outlook stock too high? Before you make a decision on the stock, take a look at whether its fundamentals have changed.

Are you a potential investor? If you’ve been keeping an eye on BN2 for a while, now may not be the most advantageous time to buy, given it is trading around its fair value. The price seems to be trading at fair value, which means there’s less benefit from mispricing. In addition to this, the negative growth outlook increases the risk of holding the stock. However, there are also other important factors we haven’t considered today, which can help crystalize your views on BN2 should the price fluctuate below its true value.
