At US$16.85, Is It Time To Put Vipshop Holdings Limited (NYSE:VIPS) On Your Watch List?

Let's talk about the popular Vipshop Holdings Limited (NYSE:VIPS). The company's shares led the NYSE gainers with a relatively large price hike in the past couple of weeks. As a large-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, could the stock still be trading at a relatively cheap price? Today I will analyse the most recent data on Vipshop Holdings’s outlook and valuation to see if the opportunity still exists.

What's the opportunity in Vipshop Holdings?

Great news for investors – Vipshop Holdings is still trading at a fairly cheap price. My valuation model shows that the intrinsic value for the stock is $21.44, but it is currently trading at US$16.85 on the share market, meaning that there is still an opportunity to buy now. What’s more interesting is that, Vipshop Holdings’s share price is quite volatile, which gives us more chances to buy since the share price could sink lower (or rise higher) in the future. This is based on its high beta, which is a good indicator for how much the stock moves relative to the rest of the market.

What kind of growth will Vipshop Holdings generate?

Investors looking for growth in their portfolio may want to consider the prospects of a company before buying its shares. Although value investors would argue that it’s the intrinsic value relative to the price that matter the most, a more compelling investment thesis would be high growth potential at a cheap price. Vipshop Holdings’s earnings over the next few years are expected to increase by 82%, indicating a highly optimistic future ahead. This should lead to more robust cash flows, feeding into a higher share value.

What this means for you:

Are you a shareholder? Since VIPS is currently undervalued, it may be a great time to accumulate more of 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.
