Is It Time To Consider Buying Mach7 Technologies Limited (ASX:M7T)?

Mach7 Technologies Limited (ASX:M7T), is not the largest company out there, but it saw a decent share price growth of 18% on the ASX 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. With many analysts covering the stock, we may expect any price-sensitive announcements have already been factored into the stock’s share price. However, could the stock still be trading at a relatively cheap price? Today we will analyse the most recent data on Mach7 Technologies’s outlook and valuation to see if the opportunity still exists.

What Is Mach7 Technologies Worth?

According to our valuation model, Mach7 Technologies seems to be fairly priced at around 15% below our intrinsic value, which means if you buy Mach7 Technologies today, you’d be paying a fair price for it. And if you believe that the stock is really worth A$0.83, then there’s not much of an upside to gain from mispricing. Is there another opportunity to buy low in the future? Since Mach7 Technologies’s share price is quite volatile, we could potentially see it sink lower (or rise higher) in the future, giving us another chance to buy. This is based on its high beta, which is a good indicator for how much the stock moves relative to the rest of the market.

What kind of growth will Mach7 Technologies 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. However, with an extremely negative double-digit change in profit expected over the next couple of years, near-term growth is certainly not a driver of a buy decision. It seems like high uncertainty is on the cards for Mach7 Technologies, at least in the near future.

What This Means For You

Are you a shareholder? M7T seems fairly priced right now, but given the uncertainty from negative returns in the future, this could be the right time to reduce the risk in your portfolio. Is your current exposure to the stock beneficial for your total portfolio? And is the opportunity cost of holding a negative-outlook stock too high? Before you make a decision on the stock, take a look at whether its fundamentals have changed.

Are you a potential investor? If you’ve been keeping an eye on M7T for a while, now may not be the most advantageous time to buy, given it is trading around its fair value. The price seems to be trading at fair value, which means there’s less benefit from mispricing. In addition to this, the negative growth outlook increases the risk of holding the stock. However, there are also other important factors we haven’t considered today, which can help gel your views on M7T should the price fluctuate below its true value.
