Let's talk about the popular Koninklijke Philips N.V. (AMS:PHIA). The company's shares led the ENXTAM gainers with a relatively large price hike in the past couple of weeks. With many analysts covering the large-cap stock, we may expect any price-sensitive announcements have already been factored into the stock’s share price. But what if there is still an opportunity to buy? Today I will analyse the most recent data on Koninklijke Philips’s outlook and valuation to see if the opportunity still exists.

Is Koninklijke Philips Still Cheap?

Great news for investors – Koninklijke Philips is still trading at a fairly cheap price. According to my valuation, the intrinsic value for the stock is €33.76, but it is currently trading at €20.27 on the share market, meaning that there is still an opportunity to buy now. Koninklijke Philips’s share price also seems relatively stable compared to the rest of the market, as indicated by its low beta. If you believe the share price should eventually reach its true value, a low beta could suggest it is unlikely to rapidly do so anytime soon, and once it’s there, it may be hard to fall back down into an attractive buying range.

Can we expect growth from Koninklijke Philips?

ENXTAM:PHIA Earnings and Revenue Growth July 16th 2023

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 revenues expected to grow by a double-digit 13% over the next couple of years, the outlook is positive for Koninklijke Philips. If the level of expenses is able to be maintained, 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? Since PHIA is currently undervalued, it may be a great time to increase 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 PHIA for a while, now might be the time to make a leap. Its prosperous future outlook isn’t fully reflected in the current share price yet, which means it’s not too late to buy PHIA. But before you make any investment decisions, consider other factors such as the track record of its management team, in order to make a well-informed buy.
