New Wave Group AB (publ) (STO:NEWA B), is not the largest company out there, but it saw a significant share price rise of over 20% in the past couple of months on the OM. As a small cap stock, which tends to lack high analyst coverage, 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? Let’s take a look at New Wave Group’s outlook and value based on the most recent financial data to see if the opportunity still exists.

What Is New Wave Group Worth?

Good news, investors! New Wave Group is still a bargain right now. According to my valuation, the intrinsic value for the stock is SEK138.77, which is above what the market is valuing the company at the moment. This indicates a potential opportunity to buy low. However, given that New Wave Group’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 New Wave Group generate?

OM:NEWA B Earnings and Revenue Growth December 12th 2023

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. Though in the case of New Wave Group, it is expected to deliver a relatively unexciting earnings growth of 5.9%, which doesn’t help build up its investment thesis. Growth doesn’t appear to be a main reason for a buy decision for the company, at least in the near term.

What This Means For You

Are you a shareholder? Even though growth is relatively muted, since NEWA B is currently undervalued, it may be a great time to increase your holdings in the stock. However, there are also other factors such as financial health to consider, which could explain the current undervaluation.
