What's The Opportunity In Reliance Worldwide?

Good news, investors! Reliance Worldwide is still a bargain right now. According to our valuation, the intrinsic value for the stock is A$8.30, but it is currently trading at AU$5.32 on the share market, meaning that there is still an opportunity to buy now.

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 does the future of Reliance Worldwide look like?

Future outlook is an important aspect when you’re looking at buying a stock, especially if you are an investor looking for growth in your portfolio. 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. Reliance Worldwide's earnings over the next few years are expected to increase by 57%, indicating a highly optimistic future ahead. This should lead to more robust cash flows, feeding into a higher share value.

What This Means For You

Are you a shareholder? Since RWC is currently undervalued, it may be a great time to accumulate more of your holdings in the stock. With a positive outlook on the horizon, it seems like this growth has not yet been fully factored into the share price. 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 RWC for a while, now might be the time to make a leap. Its buoyant future outlook isn’t fully reflected in the current share price yet, which means it’s not too late to buy RWC. 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.
