Troax Group AB (publ) (STO:TROAX), which is in the machinery business, and is based in Sweden, saw a decent share price growth in the teens level on the OM 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.

What is Troax Group worth?

The stock is currently trading at kr316 on the share market, which means it is overvalued by 35.15% compared to my intrinsic value of SEK233.44. This means that the opportunity to buy Troax Group at a good price has disappeared! In addition to this, it seems like Troax Group’s share price is quite stable, which could mean two things: firstly, it may take the share price a while to fall back down to an attractive buying range, and secondly, there may be less chances to buy low in the future once it reaches that value. This is because the stock is less volatile than the wider market given its low beta.

Future outlook is an important aspect when you’re looking at buying a stock, especially if you are an investor looking for growth in your portfolio. 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. Troax Group’s 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? It seems like the market has well and truly priced in TROAX’s positive outlook, with shares trading above its fair value. However, this brings up another question – is now the right time to sell? If you believe TROAX 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 tabs on TROAX for some time, 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 TROAX, which means it’s worth diving deeper into other factors in order to take advantage of the next price drop.
