SJM Holdings Limited (HKG:880), which is in the hospitality business, and is based in Hong Kong, saw a significant share price rise of over 20% in the past couple of months on the SEHK. With many analysts covering the mid-cap stock, we may expect any price-sensitive announcements have already been factored into the stock’s share price. But what if there is still an opportunity to buy? Let’s examine SJM Holdings’s valuation and outlook in more detail to determine if there’s still a bargain opportunity.

What's the opportunity in SJM Holdings?

Great news for investors – SJM Holdings is still trading at a fairly cheap price. According to my valuation, the intrinsic value for the stock is HK$13.75, but it is currently trading at HK$10.62 on the share market, meaning that there is still an opportunity to buy now. Although, there may be another chance to buy again in the future. This is because SJM Holdings’s beta (a measure of share price volatility) is high, meaning its price movements will be exaggerated relative to the rest of the market. If the market is bearish, the company's shares will likely fall by more than the rest of the market, providing a prime buying opportunity.

What kind of growth will SJM Holdings 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. SJM Holdings’s earnings growth are expected to be in the teens in the upcoming years, indicating a solid future ahead. This should lead to robust cash flows, feeding into a higher share value.

What this means for you:

Are you a shareholder? Since 880 is currently undervalued, it may be a great time to increase your holdings in the stock. With an optimistic 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 880 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 880. But before you make any investment decisions, consider other factors such as the track record of its management team, in order to make a well-informed buy.
