Why M Winkworth PLC (LON:WINK) Could Be Worth Watching

M Winkworth PLC (LON:WINK), is not the largest company out there, but it saw a decent share price growth in the teens level on the AIM over the last few months. As a small cap stock, hardly covered by any analysts, there is generally more of an opportunity for mispricing as there is less activity to push the stock closer to fair value. Is there still an opportunity here to buy? Let’s take a look at M Winkworth’s outlook and value based on the most recent financial data to see if the opportunity still exists.

What's The Opportunity In M Winkworth?

M Winkworth appears to be overvalued by 25% at the moment, based on my discounted cash flow valuation. The stock is currently priced at UK£1.75 on the market compared to my intrinsic value of £1.40. This means that the buying opportunity has probably disappeared for now. Another thing to keep in mind is that M Winkworth’s share price is quite stable relative to the market, as indicated by its low beta. This means that if you believe the current share price should move towards its intrinsic value over time, a low beta could suggest it is not likely to reach that level anytime soon, and once it’s there, it may be hard to fall back down into an attractive buying range again.

Can we expect growth from M Winkworth?

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. M Winkworth's revenue growth are expected to be in the teens in the upcoming year, indicating a solid future ahead. Unless expenses grow at the same level, or higher, this top-line growth should lead to robust cash flows, feeding into a higher share value.

What This Means For You

Are you a shareholder? It seems like the market has well and truly priced in WINK’s positive outlook, with shares trading above its fair value. At this current price, shareholders may be asking a different question – should I sell? If you believe WINK should trade below its current price, selling high and buying it back up again when its price falls towards its real value can be profitable. But before you make this decision, take a look at whether its fundamentals have changed.
