Generic Sweden AB (STO:GENI), might not be a large cap stock, but it received a lot of attention from a substantial price increase on the OM over the last few months. The recent jump in the share price has meant that the company is trading at close to its 52-week high. Less-covered, small caps tend to present more of an opportunity for mispricing due to the lack of information available to the public, which can be a good thing. So, could the stock still be trading at a low price relative to its actual value? Today we will analyse the most recent data on Generic Sweden’s outlook and valuation to see if the opportunity still exists.

What kind of growth will Generic Sweden generate?
