Let's dive into some prime choices out of the screener.

Tinexta (BIT:TNXT)

Overview: Tinexta S.p.A. and its subsidiaries offer digital trust, cybersecurity, and business innovation services across various regions including Italy, France, Spain, the rest of the EU, the United Kingdom, the UAE, and internationally with a market cap of €484.16 million.

Operations: The company's revenue is primarily derived from its Digital Trust services (€206.58 million), followed by Business Innovation (€151.73 million) and Cybersecurity (€106.31 million).

Estimated Discount To Fair Value: 14.9%

Tinexta is trading at €10.55, below its estimated fair value of €12.4, indicating potential undervaluation based on cash flows. Despite recent volatility and a decline in net income to €18.24 million for 2024, earnings are forecast to grow significantly at 27.5% annually, outpacing the Italian market's growth rate. However, profit margins have decreased and debt coverage by operating cash flow remains inadequate, highlighting financial challenges despite positive revenue growth projections of 7.7% annually.

Lectra (ENXTPA:LSS)

Overview: Lectra SA offers industrial intelligence solutions for the fashion, automotive, furniture markets, and other industries globally with a market cap of €923.39 million.

Operations: The company's revenue is segmented into €176.26 million from the Americas, €134.84 million from the Asia-Pacific region, and €220.46 million from EMEA (Europe, Middle East, and Africa).

Estimated Discount To Fair Value: 48.8%

Lectra, trading at €24.3 and significantly below its fair value of €47.47, presents a strong case for undervaluation based on cash flows. Earnings are projected to grow at 20.9% annually, surpassing the French market's growth rate of 12.1%. However, revenue growth is slower at 6% per year. Recent expansion into new markets with Valia Fashion enhances operational efficiency and could drive future revenue increases despite current modest sales performance and low return on equity forecasts (12.5%).

Fagerhult Group (OM:FAG)

Overview: Fagerhult Group AB, along with its subsidiaries, designs, manufactures, and markets professional lighting solutions globally and has a market cap of SEK7.72 billion.

Operations: The company's revenue segments include Premium at SEK2.77 billion, Collection at SEK3.72 billion, Professional at SEK1.02 billion, Infrastructure at SEK821.10 million, and Smart Solutions at SEK14.40 million.

Estimated Discount To Fair Value: 41.8%

Fagerhult Group, trading at SEK 43.8 and over 20% below its fair value of SEK 75.22, appears undervalued based on cash flows. Despite a recent dip in Q1 earnings and net income, the company anticipates annual profit growth of 24.1%, outpacing the Swedish market's average growth rate. However, profit margins have declined from last year, and dividend sustainability remains questionable due to an unstable track record and recent decreases.
