Below we spotlight a couple of our favorites from our exclusive screener.

Barry Callebaut

Overview: Barry Callebaut AG operates in the manufacturing and sale of chocolate and cocoa products, with a market capitalization of approximately CHF 8.75 billion.

Operations: The company's revenue is derived from its Global Cocoa segment, which generated CHF 5.31 billion.

Estimated Discount To Fair Value: 12.5%

Barry Callebaut, priced at CHF1599, trades below our fair value estimate of CHF1827.66, reflecting a modest undervaluation. Despite this, the company's revenue and earnings growth are forecasted to outpace the Swiss market at 7.4% and 25.2% per year respectively. However, its debt is not well covered by operating cash flows, introducing some financial risk. The recent sales trading statement on May 2nd indicates sustained operational activity but does not significantly alter the financial outlook.

Operations: Sika's revenue is derived mainly from two segments: CHF 9.45 billion from construction industry products and CHF 1.78 billion from industrial manufacturing products.

Estimated Discount To Fair Value: 23.6%

Sika, valued at CHF259, is perceived as undervalued with a fair value estimate of CHF338.9, trading 23.6% below this mark. Its revenue and earnings growth forecasts of 6.1% and 12.7% respectively outstrip the Swiss market predictions, though the company's high debt levels pose some financial concerns. Recent expansions in China and Peru highlight strategic growth initiatives aimed at meeting increasing market demands and enhancing sustainability in construction materials.

Operations: The company generates its revenue by providing integrated banking software systems to financial institutions globally.

Estimated Discount To Fair Value: 23.9%

Temenos, priced at CHF64.9, is considered undervalued with a fair value estimate of CHF85.32, reflecting a significant discount. While its revenue growth at 7.6% annually is modest compared to some market benchmarks, earnings are expected to increase by 14.7% yearly, outpacing the Swiss market's 8.3%. However, high debt levels and share price volatility present challenges. Recent strategic moves include a share buyback program and partnerships for digital transformations with Haventree Bank and PC Financial®, enhancing its business agility and market reach through scalable SaaS solutions.
