Is Lingyi iTech (Guangdong) Still Cheap?
Good news, investors! Lingyi iTech (Guangdong) is still a bargain right now according to my price multiple model, which compares the company's price-to-earnings ratio to the industry average. I've used the price-to-earnings ratio in this instance because there's not enough visibility to forecast its cash flows. The stock's ratio of 29.23x is currently well-below the industry average of 34.47x, meaning that it is trading at a cheaper price relative to its peers. Another thing to keep in mind is that Lingyi iTech (Guangdong)'s share price is quite stable relative to the rest of the market, as indicated by its low beta. This means that if you believe the current share price should move towards its industry peers, a low beta could suggest it is not likely to reach that level anytime soon, and once it's there, it may be hard to fall back down into an attractive buying range again.
Can we expect growth from Lingyi iTech (Guangdong)?
