Is Oboya Horticulture Industries still cheap?

Great news for investors – Oboya Horticulture Industries is still trading at a fairly cheap price. My valuation model shows that the intrinsic value for the stock is SEK5.80, which is above what the market is valuing the company at the moment. This indicates a potential opportunity to buy low. However, given that Oboya Horticulture Industries’s share is fairly volatile (i.e. its price movements are magnified relative to the rest of the market) this could mean the price can sink lower, giving us another chance to buy in the future. This is based on its high beta, which is a good indicator for share price volatility.

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. However, with a relatively muted revenue growth of 4.7% expected over the next couple of years, growth doesn’t seem like a key driver for a buy decision for Oboya Horticulture Industries, at least in the short term.

What this means for you:

Are you a shareholder? Even though growth is relatively muted, since OBOYA B is currently undervalued, it may be a great time to accumulate more of your holdings in the stock. 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 OBOYA B for a while, now might be the time to enter the stock. Its future outlook isn’t fully reflected in the current share price yet, which means it’s not too late to buy OBOYA B. But before you make any investment decisions, consider other factors such as the track record of its management team, in order to make a well-informed investment decision.
