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. 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.

This should lead to stronger cash flows, feeding into a higher share value.

What this means for you:

Are you a shareholder? FILA’s optimistic future growth appears to have been factored into the current share price, with shares trading above its fair value. At this current price, shareholders may be asking a different question – should I sell? If you believe FILA should trade below its current price, selling high and buying it back up again when its price falls towards its real value can be profitable.
