Should You Investigate Sabre Corporation (NASDAQ:SABR) At US$3.08?

Sabre Corporation (NASDAQ:SABR), is not the largest company out there, but it received a lot of attention from a substantial price increase on the NASDAQGS over the last few months. Shareholders may appreciate the recent price jump, but the company still has a way to go before reaching its yearly highs again. With many analysts covering the stock, we may expect any price-sensitive announcements have already been factored into the stock’s share price. However, what if the stock is still a bargain? Let’s examine Sabre’s valuation and outlook in more detail to determine if there’s still a bargain opportunity.

What Is Sabre Worth?

According to our valuation model, the stock is currently overvalued by about 29%, trading at US$3.08 compared to our intrinsic value of $2.38. This means that the buying opportunity has probably disappeared for now. But, is there another opportunity to buy low in the future? Given that Sabre’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 kind of growth will Sabre generate?

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. With profit expected to grow by 69% over the next year, the near-term future seems bright for Sabre. It looks like higher cash flow is on the cards for the stock, which should feed into a higher share valuation.

What This Means For You

Are you a shareholder? It seems like the market has well and truly priced in SABR’s positive outlook, with shares trading above its fair value. However, this brings up another question – is now the right time to sell? If you believe SABR 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.
