Is It Too Late To Consider Buying Silverlake Axis Ltd (SGX:5CP)?

Simply Wall St ·  Jun 16, 2022 23:08

Silverlake Axis Ltd (SGX:5CP), is not the largest company out there, but it led the SGX gainers with a relatively large price hike in the past couple of weeks. As a small cap stock, which tends to lack high analyst coverage, there is generally more of an opportunity for mispricing as there is less activity to push the stock closer to fair value. Is there still an opportunity here to buy? Let's examine Silverlake Axis's valuation and outlook in more detail to determine if there's still a bargain opportunity.

What's the opportunity in Silverlake Axis?

The stock seems fairly valued at the moment according to my valuation model. It's trading around 12% below my intrinsic value, which means if you buy Silverlake Axis today, you'd be paying a fair price for it. And if you believe that the stock is really worth SGD0.40, then there isn't much room for the share price grow beyond what it's currently trading. In addition to this, Silverlake Axis has a low beta, which suggests its share price is less volatile than the wider market.

What kind of growth will Silverlake Axis generate?

SGX:5CP Earnings and Revenue Growth June 17th 2022

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. With profit expected to grow by 25% over the next couple of years, the future seems bright for Silverlake Axis. 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? 5CP's optimistic future growth appears to have been factored into the current share price, with shares trading around its fair value. However, there are also other important factors which we haven't considered today, such as the financial strength of the company. 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 5CP, now may not be the most optimal time to buy, given it is trading around its fair value. However, the optimistic prospect is encouraging for the company, which means it's worth further examining other factors such as the strength of its balance sheet, in order to take advantage of the next price drop.
