Leoch International Technology Limited (HKG:842), is not the largest company out there, but it received a lot of attention from a substantial price increase on the SEHK over the last few months. Less-covered, small caps tend to present 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? Let’s take a look at Leoch International Technology’s outlook and value based on the most recent financial data to see if the opportunity still exists.

Is Leoch International Technology still cheap?

The stock seems fairly valued at the moment according to my valuation model.

And if you believe that the stock is really worth HK$1.35, there’s only an insignificant downside when the price falls to its real value. Furthermore, Leoch International Technology’s low beta implies that the stock is less volatile than the wider market.

Investors looking for growth in their portfolio may want to consider the prospects of a company before buying its shares. Buying a great company with a robust outlook at a cheap price is always a good investment, so let’s also take a look at the company's future expectations. With profit expected to more than double over the next couple of years, the future seems bright for Leoch International Technology. 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 842’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 842, 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.
