IRadimed Corporation (NASDAQ:IRMD), which is in the medical equipment business, and is based in United States, received a lot of attention from a substantial price increase on the NASDAQCM over the last few months. Less-covered, small caps tend to present more of an opportunity for mispricing due to the lack of information available to the public, which can be a good thing. So, could the stock still be trading at a low price relative to its actual value? Let’s examine IRadimed’s valuation and outlook in more detail to determine if there’s still a bargain opportunity.

Is IRadimed still cheap?

Great news for investors – IRadimed is still trading at a fairly cheap price. In this instance, I’ve used the price-to-earnings (PE) ratio given that there is not enough information to reliably forecast the stock’s cash flows. I find that IRadimed’s ratio of 31.55x is below its peer average of 42.24x, which suggests the stock is undervalued compared to the Medical Equipment industry. Although, there may be another chance to buy again in the future. This is because IRadimed’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.

What kind of growth will IRadimed generate?

Investors looking for growth in their portfolio may want to consider the prospects of a company before buying its shares. 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 profit expected to grow by 66% over the next couple of years, the future seems bright for IRadimed. 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 IRMD 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.

Are you a potential investor? If you’ve been keeping an eye on IRMD for a while, now might be the time to enter the stock. Its prosperous future outlook isn’t fully reflected in the current share price yet, which means it’s not too late to buy IRMD. 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.
