ACTIA Group S.A. (EPA:ATI), might not be a large cap stock, but it led the ENXTPA gainers with a relatively large price hike in the past couple of weeks. As a small cap stock, hardly covered by any analysts, there is generally more of an opportunity for mispricing as there is less activity to push the stock closer to fair value. Is there still an opportunity here to buy? Let’s take a look at ACTIA Group’s outlook and value based on the most recent financial data to see if the opportunity still exists.

What is ACTIA Group worth?

Great news for investors – ACTIA Group is still trading at a fairly cheap price. My valuation model shows that the intrinsic value for the stock is €4.31, which is above what the market is valuing the company at the moment. This indicates a potential opportunity to buy low. However, given that ACTIA Group’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 another chance to buy in the future. This is based on its high beta, which is a good indicator for share price volatility.

What kind of growth will ACTIA Group generate?

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. 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. With profit expected to grow by 57% over the next year, the near-term future seems bright for ACTIA Group. It looks like higher cash flow is on the cards for the stock, which should feed into a higher share valuation.

What this means for you:

Are you a shareholder? Since ATI 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 financial health to consider, which could explain the current undervaluation.

Are you a potential investor? If you’ve been keeping an eye on ATI for a while, now might be the time to enter the stock. Its prosperous future outlook isn’t fully reflected in the current share price yet, which means it’s not too late to buy ATI. But before you make any investment decisions, consider other factors such as the track record of its management team, in order to make a well-informed buy.
