Is Verint Systems Still Cheap?

Great news for investors – Verint Systems is still trading at a fairly cheap price. According to my valuation, the intrinsic value for the stock is $66.79, but it is currently trading at US$40.69 on the share market, meaning that there is still an opportunity to buy now. Verint Systems’s share price also seems relatively stable compared to the rest of the market, as indicated by its low beta. If you believe the share price should eventually reach its true value, a low beta could suggest it is unlikely to rapidly do so anytime soon, and once it’s there, it may be hard to fall back down into an attractive buying range.

Can we expect growth from Verint Systems?
