Avingtrans plc (LON:AVG), is not the largest company out there, but it saw a decent share price growth in the teens level on the AIM over the last few months. Less-covered, small caps sees more of an opportunity for mispricing due to the lack of information available to the public, which can be a good thing. So, could the stock still be trading at a low price relative to its actual value? Today I will analyse the most recent data on Avingtrans’s outlook and valuation to see if the opportunity still exists.

What is Avingtrans worth?

The stock seems fairly valued at the moment according to my valuation model. It’s trading around 5.1% below my intrinsic value, which means if you buy Avingtrans today, you’d be paying a reasonable price for it. And if you believe the company’s true value is £2.98, then there isn’t much room for the share price grow beyond what it’s currently trading. What's more, Avingtrans’s share price may be more stable over time (relative to the market), as indicated by its low beta.

What does the future of Avingtrans 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. 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 more than double over the next couple of years, the future seems bright for Avingtrans. 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? It seems like the market has already priced in AVG’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 confidence to invest in the company should the price drop below its fair value?

Are you a potential investor? If you’ve been keeping tabs on AVG, now may not be the most optimal time to buy, given it is trading around its fair value. However, the positive outlook is encouraging for the company, which means it’s worth diving deeper into other factors such as the strength of its balance sheet, in order to take advantage of the next price drop.
