At CHF0227, Is Adval Tech Holding AG (VTX:ADVN) A Buy?

Adval Tech Holding AG (VTX:ADVN), a machinery company based in Switzerland, received a lot of attention from a substantial price movement on the SWX over the last few months, increasing to CHF250 at one point, and dropping to the lows of CHF227. This high level of volatility gives investors the opportunity to enter into the stock, and potentially buy at an artificially low price. A question to answer is whether Adval Tech Holding’s current trading price of CHF227 reflective of the actual value of the small-cap? Or is it currently undervalued, providing us with the opportunity to buy? Let’s take a look at Adval Tech Holding’s outlook and value based on the most recent financial data to see if there are any catalysts for a price change.

Is Adval Tech Holding still cheap?

The stock seems fairly valued at the moment according to my valuation model. It’s trading around 4.94% above my intrinsic value, which means if you buy Adval Tech Holding today, you’d be paying a relatively fair price for it. And if you believe the company’s true value is CHF216.31, there’s only an insignificant downside when the price falls to its real value. Furthermore, it seems like Adval Tech Holding’s share price is quite stable, which means there may be less chances to buy low in the future now that it’s fairly valued. This is because the stock is less volatile than the wider market given its low beta.

With profit expected to grow by 25.76% over the next couple of years, the future seems bright for Adval Tech Holding. It looks like higher cash flows is on the cards for the stock, which should feed into a higher share valuation.

What this means for you:

Are you a shareholder? ADVN’s optimistic future growth appears to have been factored into the current share price, with shares trading around its fair value.
