While MARR S.p.A. (BIT:MARR) might not have the largest market cap around , it saw significant share price movement during recent months on the BIT, rising to highs of €12.50 and falling to the lows of €10.40. Some share price movements can give investors a better opportunity to enter into the stock, and potentially buy at a lower price. A question to answer is whether MARR's current trading price of €11.16 reflective of the actual value of the small-cap? Or is it currently undervalued, providing us with the opportunity to buy? Let’s take a look at MARR’s outlook and value based on the most recent financial data to see if there are any catalysts for a price change.

What Is MARR Worth?

According to our price multiple model, which makes a comparison between the company's price-to-earnings ratio and the industry average, the stock price seems to be justfied. In this instance, we’ve used the price-to-earnings (PE) ratio given that there is not enough information to reliably forecast the stock’s cash flows. We find that MARR’s ratio of 15.34x is trading slightly above its industry peers’ ratio of 14.91x, which means if you buy MARR today, you’d be paying a relatively sensible price for it. And if you believe that MARR should be trading at this level in the long run, then there should only be a fairly immaterial downside vs other industry peers. So, is there another chance to buy low in the future? Given that MARR’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 an opportunity to buy later on. This is based on its high beta, which is a good indicator for share price volatility.

Can we expect growth from MARR?
