While Hillman Solutions Corp. (NASDAQ:HLMN) might not have the largest market cap around , it received a lot of attention from a substantial price increase on the NASDAQGM over the last few months. Shareholders may appreciate the recent price jump, but the company still has a way to go before reaching its yearly highs again. As a 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? Let's take a look at Hillman Solutions's outlook and value based on the most recent financial data to see if the opportunity still exists.

What Is Hillman Solutions Worth?
Great news for investors – Hillman Solutions is still trading at a fairly cheap price. Our valuation model shows that the intrinsic value for the stock is $14.59, but it is currently trading at US$9.09 on the share market, meaning that there is still an opportunity to buy now. However, given that Hillman Solutions'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.
What does the future of Hillman Solutions look like?
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. Though in the case of Hillman Solutions, it is expected to deliver a relatively unexciting top-line growth of 8.9% in the next few years, which doesn't help build up its investment thesis. Growth doesn't appear to be a main reason for a buy decision for the company, at least in the near term.
What This Means For You
Are you a shareholder? Even though growth is relatively muted, since HLMN 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 HLMN for a while, now might be the time to make a leap. Its future outlook isn't fully reflected in the current share price yet, which means it's not too late to buy HLMN. But before you make any investment decisions, consider other factors such as the strength of its balance sheet, in order to make a well-informed buy.
