Is There Now An Opportunity In Redrow plc (LON:RDW)?

Redrow plc (LON:RDW), which is in the consumer durables business, and is based in United Kingdom, received a lot of attention from a substantial price increase on the LSE over the last few months. As a mid-cap stock with high coverage by analysts, you could assume any recent changes in the company’s outlook is already priced into the stock. However, what if the stock is still a bargain? Today I will analyse the most recent data on Redrow’s outlook and valuation to see if the opportunity still exists.

What’s the opportunity in Redrow?

The stock seems fairly valued at the moment according to my valuation model. It’s trading around 12.58% above my intrinsic value, which means if you buy Redrow today, you’d be paying a relatively reasonable price for it. And if you believe the company’s true value is £5.49, there’s only an insignificant downside when the price falls to its real value. What’s more, Redrow’s share price may be more stable over time (relative to the market), as indicated by its low beta.

Can we expect growth from Redrow?

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. Redrow’s earnings growth are expected to be in the teens in the upcoming years, indicating a solid future ahead. This should lead to robust cash flows, feeding into a higher share value.

What this means for you:

Are you a shareholder? It seems like the market has already priced in RDW’s positive outlook, with shares trading around its fair value. However, there are also other important factors which we haven’t considered today, such as the track record of its management team. Have these factors changed since the last time you looked at the stock? Will you have enough conviction to buy should the price fluctuates below the true value?

Are you a potential investor? If you’ve been keeping tabs on RDW, now may not be the most advantageous time to buy, given it is trading around its fair value. However, the positive outlook is encouraging for the company, which means it’s worth diving deeper into other factors such as the strength of its balance sheet, in order to take advantage of the next price drop.
