Is Flughafen Wien still cheap?

Flughafen Wien appears to be overvalued by 40% at the moment, based on my discounted cash flow valuation. The stock is currently priced at €27.30 on the market compared to my intrinsic value of €19.54. This means that the opportunity to buy Flughafen Wien at a good price has disappeared! If you like the stock, you may want to keep an eye out for a potential price decline in the future. Since Flughafen Wien’s share price is quite volatile, this could mean it can sink lower (or rise even further) in the future, giving us another chance to invest. This is based on its high beta, which is a good indicator for how much the stock moves relative to the rest of the market.

What does the future of Flughafen Wien 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. In Flughafen Wien's case, its revenues over the next couple of years are expected to double, indicating an incredibly optimistic future ahead. If expense does not increase by the same rate, or higher, this top line growth should lead to stronger cash flows, feeding into a higher share value.

What this means for you:

Are you a shareholder? It seems like the market has well and truly priced in FLU’s positive outlook, with shares trading above its fair value. At this current price, shareholders may be asking a different question – should I sell? If you believe FLU should trade below its current price, selling high and buying it back up again when its price falls towards its real value can be profitable. But before you make this decision, take a look at whether its fundamentals have changed.

Are you a potential investor? If you’ve been keeping tabs on FLU for some time, now may not be the best time to enter into the stock. The price has surpassed its true value, which means there’s no upside from mispricing. However, the positive outlook is encouraging for FLU, which means it’s worth diving deeper into other factors in order to take advantage of the next price drop.
