Should You Investigate Party City Holdco Inc. (NYSE:PRTY) At US$8.15?

Party City Holdco Inc. (NYSE:PRTY), which is in the specialty retail business, and is based in United States, saw significant share price movement during recent months on the NYSE, rising to highs of $12.31 and falling to the lows of $7.75.

Is Party City Holdco still cheap?

Great news for investors – Party City Holdco is still trading at a fairly cheap price. My valuation model shows that the intrinsic value for the stock is $15.18, but it is currently trading at US$8.15 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 Party City Holdco’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.

What kind of growth will Party City Holdco generate?

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 grow by 48% over the next couple of years, the future seems bright for Party City Holdco. 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 PRTY 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.
