While Cargojet Inc. (TSE:CJT) might not have the largest market cap around , it saw a decent share price growth of 20% on the TSX over the last few months. While good news for shareholders, the company has traded much higher in the past year. With many analysts covering the stock, we may expect any price-sensitive announcements have already been factored into the stock’s share price. However, could the stock still be trading at a relatively cheap price? Today we will analyse the most recent data on Cargojet’s outlook and valuation to see if the opportunity still exists.

What Is Cargojet Worth?
According to our valuation model, Cargojet seems to be fairly priced at around 7.98% above our intrinsic value, which means if you buy Cargojet today, you’d be paying a relatively reasonable price for it. And if you believe the company’s true value is CA$120.77, then there isn’t really any room for the share price grow beyond what it’s currently trading. In addition to this, Cargojet has a low beta, which suggests its share price is less volatile than the wider market.
What does the future of Cargojet look like?
Investors looking for growth in their portfolio may want to consider the prospects of a company before buying its shares. 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. Cargojet's earnings over the next few years are expected to double, indicating a very optimistic future ahead. This 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 already priced in CJT’s positive outlook, with shares trading around its fair value. However, there are also other important factors which we haven’t considered today, such as the track record of its management team. Have these factors changed since the last time you looked at the stock? Will you have enough conviction to buy should the price fluctuates below the true value?
Are you a potential investor? If you’ve been keeping an eye on CJT, now may not be the most advantageous time to buy, given it is trading around its fair value. However, the optimistic prospect is encouraging for the company, which means it’s worth further examining other factors such as the strength of its balance sheet, in order to take advantage of the next price drop.
