Amidst a backdrop of fluctuating global markets and specific challenges such as the U.S.-China trade tensions, investors are increasingly turning their attention to value stocks. The Netherlands market, with its diverse range of companies listed on Euronext Amsterdam, offers several opportunities for those looking to invest in stocks that are potentially undervalued relative to their estimated worth. In this context, understanding the intrinsic qualities that contribute to a stock being considered 'good' or 'undervalued' becomes crucial, especially when external economic pressures are at play.

Let's take a closer look at a couple of our picks from the screened companies.
Alfen
Overview: Alfen N.V. specializes in the design, engineering, development, production, and servicing of smart grids, energy storage systems, and electric vehicle charging equipment with a market capitalization of approximately €0.35 billion.
Operations: The company generates revenue through three primary segments: Smart Grid Solutions (€188.38 million), EV Charging Equipment (€153.12 million), and Energy Storage Systems (€162.98 million).
Estimated Discount To Fair Value: 34.6%
Alfen, priced at €16.22, is considerably undervalued based on DCF analysis with a fair value estimate of €24.79, marking it as trading well below intrinsic value. Despite recent downward revisions in 2024 revenue forecasts from between €590 million to €660 million to now just €485 million to €500 million, Alfen maintains competitive positioning with expected earnings growth significantly surpassing market averages and substantial non-cash earnings indicating high-quality profits. However, its share price has shown high volatility recently and its Return on Equity is projected to be modest at 17.2%.
Arcadis
Overview: Arcadis NV is a global company that provides design, engineering, and consultancy services for natural and built assets, with a market capitalization of approximately €5.72 billion.
Operations: The company generates revenue from four primary segments: Places (€1.94 billion), Mobility (€0.98 billion), Resilience (€1.96 billion), and Intelligence (€0.12 billion).
Estimated Discount To Fair Value: 46.7%
Arcadis, priced at €63.55, is significantly undervalued with a DCF-based fair value of €119.31, indicating potential unrecognized value. Despite slower revenue growth projections at 1.5% annually compared to the broader Dutch market, Arcadis' earnings are expected to outpace the market with a forecasted annual increase of 20.5%. The firm's commitment to expanding its digital asset management solutions is evident from its recent contract for implementing Enterprise Decision Analytics in Henderson, Nevada. However, concerns persist due to high levels of debt and significant insider selling recently observed.

Envipco Holding

Operations: The company generates revenue by designing, developing, manufacturing, assembling, marketing, selling, leasing, and servicing reverse vending machines primarily in the Netherlands, North America, and the rest of Europe.
Estimated Discount To Fair Value: 16.3%
Envipco Holding, with a current price of €5.7, trades below the estimated fair value of €6.81, reflecting a modest undervaluation based on discounted cash flows. The company has recently shifted from a loss to profitability as evidenced by its first quarter earnings report for 2024, showing significant sales growth from €10.41 million to €27.44 million year-over-year and transitioning from a net loss to a net income of €0.147 million. Despite this progress and forecasts predicting robust annual earnings growth at 68.9% and revenue increase at 33.3%, the stock remains subject to high volatility in its share price.
