What Is Intops Co., Ltd.'s (KOSDAQ:049070) Share Price Doing?

While Intops Co., Ltd. (KOSDAQ:049070) might not be the most widely known stock at the moment, it received a lot of attention from a substantial price increase on the KOSDAQ over the last few months. 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 Intops’s outlook and valuation to see if the opportunity still exists.

What's the opportunity in Intops?

The stock is currently trading at ₩28,800 on the share market, which means it is overvalued by 37% compared to my intrinsic value of ₩21019.29. This means that the opportunity to buy Intops at a good price has disappeared! If you like the stock, you may want to keep an eye out for a potential price decline in the future. Given that Intops’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.

Can we expect growth from Intops?

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. With profit expected to grow by 35% over the next couple of years, the future seems bright for Intops. 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 well and truly priced in A049070’s positive outlook, with shares trading above its fair value. At this current price, shareholders may be asking a different question – should I sell? If you believe A049070 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. But before you make this decision, take a look at whether its fundamentals have changed.

Are you a potential investor? If you’ve been keeping an eye on A049070 for a while, now may not be the best time to enter into the stock. The price has surpassed its true value, which means there’s no upside from mispricing. However, the optimistic prospect is encouraging for A049070, which means it’s worth diving deeper into other factors in order to take advantage of the next price drop.
