Why Aston Martin Lagonda Global Holdings plc (LON:AML) Could Be Worth Watching

While Aston Martin Lagonda Global Holdings plc (LON:AML) might not be the most widely known stock at the moment, it received a lot of attention from a substantial price movement on the LSE over the last few months, increasing to UK£20.81 at one point, and dropping to the lows of UK£17.25. 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 Aston Martin Lagonda Global Holdings' current trading price of UK£18.30 reflective of the actual value of the mid-cap? Or is it currently undervalued, providing us with the opportunity to buy? Let’s take a look at Aston Martin Lagonda Global Holdings’s outlook and value based on the most recent financial data to see if there are any catalysts for a price change.

What is Aston Martin Lagonda Global Holdings worth?

According to my valuation model, Aston Martin Lagonda Global Holdings seems to be fairly priced at around 15.50% above my intrinsic value, which means if you buy Aston Martin Lagonda Global Holdings today, you’d be paying a relatively reasonable price for it. And if you believe that the stock is really worth £15.84, then there isn’t really any room for the share price grow beyond what it’s currently trading. So, is there another chance to buy low in the future? Given that Aston Martin Lagonda Global Holdings’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.

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. With profit expected to grow by 96% over the next couple of years, the future seems bright for Aston Martin Lagonda Global Holdings. 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? AML’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 confidence to invest in the company should the price drop below its fair value?
