Is It Time To Consider Buying M Winkworth PLC (LON:WINK)?

M Winkworth PLC (LON:WINK), might not be a large cap stock, but it led the AIM 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? Today I will analyse the most recent data on M Winkworth’s outlook and valuation to see if the opportunity still exists.

What's the opportunity in M Winkworth?

Great news for investors – M Winkworth is still trading at a fairly cheap price. According to my valuation, the intrinsic value for the stock is £2.62, which is above what the market is valuing the company at the moment. This indicates a potential opportunity to buy low. However, given that M Winkworth’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 M Winkworth generate?

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. M Winkworth's revenue growth are expected to be in the teens in the upcoming years, indicating a solid future ahead. Unless expenses grow at the same level, or higher, this top-line growth should lead to robust cash flows, feeding into a higher share value.

What this means for you:

Are you a shareholder? Since WINK is currently undervalued, it may be a great time to accumulate more of your holdings in the stock. With an optimistic 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 WINK 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 WINK. 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.
