What Is Equasens Société anonyme Worth?

The stock seems fairly valued at the moment according to my valuation model. It’s trading around 5.0% below my intrinsic value, which means if you buy Equasens Société anonyme today, you’d be paying a fair price for it. And if you believe that the stock is really worth €75.33, then there’s not much of an upside to gain from mispricing. So, is there another chance to buy low in the future? Given that Equasens Société anonyme’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 an opportunity to buy later on. This is based on its high beta, which is a good indicator for share price volatility.
