At CA$28.50, Is It Time To Put K-Bro Linen Inc. (TSE:KBL) On Your Watch List?

Simply Wall St
·3 min read

K-Bro Linen Inc. (TSE:KBL), might not be a large cap stock, but it saw significant share price movement during recent months on the TSX, rising to highs of CA$31.44 and falling to the lows of CA$27.61. Some share price movements can give investors a better opportunity to enter into the stock, and potentially buy at a lower price. A question to answer is whether K-Bro Linen's current trading price of CA$28.50 reflective of the actual value of the small-cap? Or is it currently undervalued, providing us with the opportunity to buy? Let’s take a look at K-Bro Linen’s outlook and value based on the most recent financial data to see if there are any catalysts for a price change.

What's The Opportunity In K-Bro Linen?

Great news for investors – K-Bro Linen is still trading at a fairly cheap price. My valuation model shows that the intrinsic value for the stock is CA$40.72, which is above what the market is valuing the company at the moment. This indicates a potential opportunity to buy low. However, given that K-Bro Linen’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.

Can we expect growth from K-Bro Linen?

Future outlook is an important aspect when you’re looking at buying a stock, especially if you are an investor looking for growth in your portfolio. Buying a great company with a robust outlook at a cheap price is always a good investment, so let’s also take a look at the company's future expectations. In K-Bro Linen's case, its earnings over the next year are expected to double, indicating an incredibly optimistic future ahead. This should lead to stronger cash flows, feeding into a higher share value.

What This Means For You

Are you a shareholder? Since KBL 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 financial health to consider, which could explain the current undervaluation.
