SFS Group AG (VTX:SFSN), might not be a large cap stock, but it saw significant share price movement during recent months on the SWX, rising to highs of CHF127 and falling to the lows of CHF98.50. 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 SFS Group's current trading price of CHF101 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 SFS Group’s outlook and value based on the most recent financial data to see if there are any catalysts for a price change.

Is SFS Group Still Cheap?
Good news, investors! SFS Group is still a bargain right now. According to my valuation, the intrinsic value for the stock is CHF128.16, but it is currently trading at CHF101 on the share market, meaning that there is still an opportunity to buy now. What’s more interesting is that, SFS Group’s share price is quite volatile, which gives us more chances to buy since the share price could sink lower (or rise higher) in the future. 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 SFS Group look like?
Investors looking for growth in their portfolio may want to consider the prospects of a company before buying its shares. 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. SFS Group's earnings over the next few years are expected to increase by 27%, indicating a highly optimistic future ahead. This should lead to more robust cash flows, feeding into a higher share value.
What This Means For You
Are you a shareholder? Since SFSN is currently undervalued, it may be a great time to increase your holdings in the stock. With a positive outlook on the horizon, it seems like this growth has not yet been fully factored into the share price. However, there are also other factors such as capital structure to consider, which could explain the current undervaluation.
Are you a potential investor? If you’ve been keeping an eye on SFSN for a while, now might be the time to enter the stock. Its buoyant future outlook isn’t fully reflected in the current share price yet, which means it’s not too late to buy SFSN. But before you make any investment decisions, consider other factors such as the strength of its balance sheet, in order to make a well-informed buy.
