Is It Time To Consider Buying Kinatico Ltd (ASX:KYP)?

While Kinatico Ltd (ASX:KYP) might not be the most widely known stock at the moment, it saw a double-digit share price rise of over 10% in the past couple of months on the ASX. As a small cap stock, which tends to lack high analyst coverage, 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? Today I will analyse the most recent data on Kinatico’s outlook and valuation to see if the opportunity still exists.

What Is Kinatico Worth?

According to my valuation model, Kinatico seems to be fairly priced at around 19% below my intrinsic value, which means if you buy Kinatico today, you’d be paying a fair price for it. And if you believe that the stock is really worth A$0.11, then there’s not much of an upside to gain from mispricing. So, is there another chance to buy low in the future? Given that Kinatico’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.

What does the future of Kinatico look like?

Investors looking for growth in their portfolio may want to consider the prospects of a company before buying its shares. Buying a great company with a robust outlook at a cheap price is always a good investment, so let’s also take a look at the company's future expectations. With profit expected to grow by 53% over the next year, the near-term future seems bright for Kinatico. 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? KYP’s optimistic future growth appears to have been factored into the current share price, with shares trading around its fair value. However, there are also other important factors which we haven’t considered today, such as the financial strength of the company. Have these factors changed since the last time you looked at the stock? Will you have enough conviction to buy should the price fluctuates below the true value?
