What Does BAUER Aktiengesellschaft’s (ETR:B5A) Share Price Indicate?

BAUER Aktiengesellschaft (ETR:B5A), which is in the construction business, and is based in Germany, saw significant share price volatility over the past couple of months on the XTRA, rising to the highs of €20.5 and falling to the lows of €15.26. This high level of volatility gives investors the opportunity to enter into the stock, and potentially buy at an artificially low price. A question to answer is whether BAUER’s current trading price of €16.22 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 BAUER’s outlook and value based on the most recent financial data to see if there are any catalysts for a price change.

What is BAUER worth?

Great news for investors – BAUER is still trading at a fairly cheap price. According to my valuation, the intrinsic value for the stock is €21.7, but it is currently trading at €16.22 on the share market, meaning that there is still an opportunity to buy now. Although, there may be another chance to buy again in the future. This is because BAUER’s beta (a measure of share price volatility) is high, meaning its price movements will be exaggerated relative to the rest of the market. If the market is bearish, the company’s shares will likely fall by more than the rest of the market, providing a prime buying opportunity.

Can we expect growth from BAUER?

Investors looking for growth in their portfolio may want to consider the prospects of a company before buying its shares. 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. With profit expected to more than double over the next couple of years, the future seems bright for BAUER. 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 B5A 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.

Are you a potential investor? If you’ve been keeping an eye on B5A for a while, now might be the time to make a leap. Its buoyant future outlook isn’t fully reflected in the current share price yet, which means it’s not too late to buy B5A. 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 buy.
