What Is Unique Fabricating, Inc.'s (NYSEMKT:UFAB) Share Price Doing?
Unique Fabricating, Inc. (NYSEMKT:UFAB), which is in the auto components business, and is based in United States, saw a significant share price rise of over 20% in the past couple of months on the AMEX. 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 examine Unique Fabricating’s valuation and outlook in more detail to determine if there’s still a bargain opportunity.

What is Unique Fabricating worth?
According to my relative valuation model, the stock seems to be currently fairly priced. In this instance, I’ve used the price-to-earnings (PE) ratio given that there is not enough information to reliably forecast the stock’s cash flows. I find that Unique Fabricating’s ratio of 8.94x is trading slightly below its industry peers’ ratio of 13.5x, which means if you buy Unique Fabricating today, you’d be paying a reasonable price for it. And if you believe that Unique Fabricating should be trading at this level in the long run, then there’s not much of an upside to gain from mispricing. So, is there another chance to buy low in the future? Given that Unique Fabricating’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 an opportunity to buy later on. This is based on its high beta, which is a good indicator for share price volatility.Can we expect growth from Unique Fabricating?

What this means for you:
Are you a shareholder? UFAB’s optimistic future growth appears to have been factored into the current share price, with shares trading around its fair value. However, there are also other important factors which we haven’t considered today, such as the financial strength of the company. Have these factors changed since the last time you looked at UFAB? Will you have enough conviction to buy should the price fluctuate below the true value?
Are you a potential investor? If you’ve been keeping an eye on UFAB, now may not be the most advantageous time to buy, given it is trading around its fair value. However, the optimistic forecast is encouraging for UFAB, which means it’s worth diving deeper into other factors such as the strength of its balance sheet, in order to take advantage of the next price drop.
