Is There Now An Opportunity In Evotec SE (ETR:EVT)?

Evotec SE (ETR:EVT), is not the largest company out there, but it saw a significant share price rise of over 20% in the past couple of months on the XTRA. With many analysts covering the mid-cap stock, we may expect any price-sensitive announcements have already been factored into the stock’s share price. But what if there is still an opportunity to buy? Let’s examine Evotec’s valuation and outlook in more detail to determine if there’s still a bargain opportunity.

Is Evotec Still Cheap?

Great news for investors – Evotec is still trading at a fairly cheap price. My valuation model shows that the intrinsic value for the stock is €30.83, but it is currently trading at €20.04 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 Evotec’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 Evotec?

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. 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 revenues expected to grow by 52% over the next couple of years, the future seems bright for Evotec. If the level of expenses is able to be maintained, 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 EVT 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 EVT for a while, now might be the time to make a leap. Its prosperous future outlook isn’t fully reflected in the current share price yet, which means it’s not too late to buy EVT. 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.
