Is There Now An Opportunity In Boston Pizza Royalties Income Fund (TSE:BPF.UN)?

Boston Pizza Royalties Income Fund (TSE:BPF.UN), is not the largest company out there, but it saw significant share price movement during recent months on the TSX, rising to highs of CA$17.57 and falling to the lows of CA$15.23. 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 Boston Pizza Royalties Income Fund's current trading price of CA$15.30 reflective of the actual value of the small-cap?

Let’s take a look at Boston Pizza Royalties Income Fund’s outlook and value based on the most recent financial data to see if there are any catalysts for a price change.

Is Boston Pizza Royalties Income Fund still cheap?

Good news, investors! Boston Pizza Royalties Income Fund is still a bargain right now. My valuation model shows that the intrinsic value for the stock is CA$22.40, but it is currently trading at CA$15.30 on the share market, meaning that there is still an opportunity to buy now. However, given that Boston Pizza Royalties Income Fund’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.

Can we expect growth from Boston Pizza Royalties Income Fund?

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. Though in the case of Boston Pizza Royalties Income Fund, it is expected to deliver a highly negative earnings growth in the next few years, which doesn’t help build up its investment thesis. It appears that risk of future uncertainty is high, at least in the near term.

What this means for you:

Are you a shareholder? Although BPF.UN is currently undervalued, the adverse prospect of negative growth brings about some degree of risk. I recommend you think about whether you want to increase your portfolio exposure to BPF.UN, or whether diversifying into another stock may be a better move for your total risk and return.
