Very undervalued with flawless balance sheet
NOAH is financially robust, with ample cash on hand and short-term investments to meet upcoming liabilities. This indicates that NOAH has sufficient cash flows and proper cash management in place, which is a key determinant of the company’s health. Investors should not worry about NOAH’s debt levels because the company has none! This means it is running its business only on equity capital funding, which is typically normal for a small-cap company. Investors’ risk associated with debt is virtually non-existent and the company has plenty of headroom to grow debt in the future, should the need arise. NOAH is currently trading below its true value, which means the market is undervaluing the company's expected cash flow going forward. This mispricing gives investors the opportunity to buy into the stock at a cheap price compared to the value they will be receiving, should analysts' consensus forecast growth be correct. Also, relative to the rest of its peers with similar levels of earnings, NOAH's share price is trading below the group's average. This further reaffirms that NOAH is potentially undervalued.
