Is It Too Late To Consider Buying GEA Group Aktiengesellschaft (ETR:G1A)?

GEA Group Aktiengesellschaft (ETR:G1A), is not the largest company out there, but it maintained its current share price over the past couple of month on the XTRA, with a relatively tight range of €36.46 to €39.67. However, does this price actually reflect the true value of the mid-cap? Or is it currently undervalued, providing us with the opportunity to buy? Let’s take a look at GEA Group’s outlook and value based on the most recent financial data to see if there are any catalysts for a price change.

Is GEA Group Still Cheap?

Great news for investors – GEA Group is still trading at a fairly cheap price. Our valuation model shows that the intrinsic value for the stock is €54.18, but it is currently trading at €39.22 on the share market, meaning that there is still an opportunity to buy now. GEA Group’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.

What kind of growth will GEA Group generate?

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. 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. With profit expected to grow by a double-digit 18% over the next couple of years, the outlook is positive for GEA Group. It looks like higher cash flow is on the cards for the stock, which should feed into a higher share valuation.

What This Means For You

Are you a shareholder? Since G1A is currently undervalued, it may be a great time to accumulate more of your holdings in the stock. With a positive 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 G1A for a while, now might be the time to enter the stock. Its buoyant future outlook isn’t fully reflected in the current share price yet, which means it’s not too late to buy G1A. But before you make any investment decisions, consider other factors such as the strength of its balance sheet, in order to make a well-informed investment decision.
