Is It Too Late To Consider Buying Monadelphous Group Limited (ASX:MND)?

Monadelphous Group Limited (ASX:MND), which is in the construction business, and is based in Australia, saw a decent share price growth in the teens level on the ASX over the last few months. As a stock with high coverage by analysts, you could assume any recent changes in the company’s outlook is already priced into the stock. But what if there is still an opportunity to buy? Let’s examine Monadelphous Group’s valuation and outlook in more detail to determine if there’s still a bargain opportunity.

Is Monadelphous Group still cheap?

Great news for investors – Monadelphous Group is still trading at a fairly cheap price. My valuation model shows that the intrinsic value for the stock is A$24.43, but it is currently trading at AU$17.82 on the share market, meaning that there is still an opportunity to buy now. However, given that Monadelphous Group’s share is fairly volatile (i.e. its price movements are magnified relative to the rest of the market) this could mean the price can sink lower, giving us another chance to buy in the future. This is based on its high beta, which is a good indicator for share price volatility.

What does the future of Monadelphous Group look like?

Investors looking for growth in their portfolio may want to consider the prospects of a company before buying its shares. 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. Monadelphous Group’s earnings over the next few years are expected to increase by 83%, 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 MND 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.
