Should You Investigate Iress Limited (ASX:IRE) At AU$7.96?
Iress Limited (ASX:IRE), is not the largest company out there, but it saw significant share price movement during recent months on the ASX, rising to highs of AU$8.66 and falling to the lows of AU$7.42. Some share price movements can give investors a better opportunity to enter into the stock, and potentially buy at a lower price. A question to answer is whether Iress' current trading price of AU$7.96 reflective of the actual value of the small-cap? Or is it currently undervalued, providing us with the opportunity to buy? Let's take a look at Iress's outlook and value based on the most recent financial data to see if there are any catalysts for a price change. Trump has pledged to "unleash" American oil and gas and these 15 US stocks have developments that are poised to benefit. Is Iress Still Cheap? The stock seems fairly valued at the moment according to our valuation model. It's trading around 1.38% above our intrinsic value, which means if you buy Iress today, you'd be paying a relatively fair price for it. And if you believe that the stock is really worth A$7.85, there's only an insignificant downside when the price falls to its real value. So, is there another chance to buy low in the future? Given that Iress'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 an opportunity to buy later on. This is based on its high beta, which is a good indicator for share price volatility. View our latest analysis for Iress Can we expect growth from Iress? 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. However, with a negative profit growth of -11% expected over the next couple of years, near-term growth certainly doesn't appear to be a driver for a buy decision for Iress. This certainty tips the risk-return scale towards higher risk. What This Means For You Are you a shareholder? Currently, IRE appears to be trading around its fair value, but given the uncertainty from negative returns in the future, this could be the right time to reduce the risk in your portfolio. Is your current exposure to the stock optimal for your total portfolio? And is the opportunity cost of holding a negative-outlook stock too high? Before you make a decision on the stock, take a look at whether its fundamentals have changed. Are you a potential investor? If you've been keeping an eye on IRE for a while, now may not be the most advantageous time to buy, given it is trading around its fair value. The stock appears to be trading at fair value, which means there's less benefit from mispricing. In addition to this, the negative growth outlook increases the risk of holding the stock. However, there are also other important factors we haven't considered today, which can help crystalize your views on IRE should the price fluctuate below its true value. If you want to dive deeper into Iress, you'd also look into what risks it is currently facing. Case in point: We've spotted 1 warning sign for Iress you should be aware of.
