While Movie Games S.A. (WSE:MOV) might not be the most widely known stock at the moment, it saw significant share price movement during recent months on the WSE, rising to highs of zł52.20 and falling to the lows of zł31.40. Some share price movements can give investors a better opportunity to enter into the stock, and potentially buy at a lower price.

What's the opportunity in Movie Games?

Good news, investors! Movie Games is still a bargain right now according to my price multiple model, which compares the company's price-to-earnings ratio to the industry average. I’ve used the price-to-earnings ratio in this instance because there’s not enough visibility to forecast its cash flows. The stock’s ratio of 7.02x is currently well-below the industry average of 13.62x, meaning that it is trading at a cheaper price relative to its peers. However, given that Movie Games’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.

What kind of growth will Movie Games generate?

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. Movie Games' earnings over the next few years are expected to increase by 27%, indicating a highly optimistic future ahead. This should lead to more robust cash flows, feeding into a higher share value.

What this means for you:

Are you a shareholder? Since MOV is currently below the industry PE ratio, 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 price multiple.

Are you a potential investor? If you’ve been keeping an eye on MOV for a while, now might be the time to enter the stock. Its prosperous future profit outlook isn’t fully reflected in the current share price yet, which means it’s not too late to buy MOV. 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 investment decision.
