While Cushman & Wakefield plc (NYSE:CWK) might not be the most widely known stock at the moment, it saw a double-digit share price rise of over 10% in the past couple of months on the NYSE. With many analysts covering the mid-cap stock, we may expect any price-sensitive announcements have already been factored into the stock’s share price. But what if there is still an opportunity to buy? Let’s take a look at Cushman & Wakefield’s outlook and value based on the most recent financial data to see if the opportunity still exists.

What Is Cushman & Wakefield Worth?
Good news, investors! Cushman & Wakefield is still a bargain right now. According to my valuation, the intrinsic value for the stock is $14.38, but it is currently trading at US$8.93 on the share market, meaning that there is still an opportunity to buy now. However, given that Cushman & Wakefield’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 does the future of Cushman & Wakefield look like?
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. Cushman & Wakefield's revenue growth are expected to be in the teens in the upcoming years, indicating a solid future ahead. Unless expenses grow at the same level, or higher, this top-line growth should lead to robust cash flows, feeding into a higher share value.
What This Means For You
Are you a shareholder? Since CWK is currently undervalued, it may be a great time to increase your holdings in the stock. With an optimistic outlook on the horizon, it seems like this growth has not yet been fully factored into the share price. However, there are also other factors such as capital structure to consider, which could explain the current undervaluation.
Are you a potential investor? If you’ve been keeping an eye on CWK for a while, now might be the time to make a leap. Its prosperous future outlook isn’t fully reflected in the current share price yet, which means it’s not too late to buy CWK. But before you make any investment decisions, consider other factors such as the track record of its management team, in order to make a well-informed investment decision.
