When Should You Buy Genting Singapore Limited (SGX:G13)?

Simply Wall St ·  Sep 7 20:19

While Genting Singapore Limited (SGX:G13) might not have the largest market cap around , it saw significant share price movement during recent months on the SGX, rising to highs of S$0.91 and falling to the lows of S$0.79. 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 Genting Singapore's current trading price of S$0.82 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 Genting Singapore's outlook and value based on the most recent financial data to see if there are any catalysts for a price change.

What's The Opportunity In Genting Singapore?

Genting Singapore appears to be overvalued by 28% at the moment, based on our discounted cash flow valuation. The stock is currently priced at S$0.82 on the market compared to our intrinsic value of SGD0.64. Not the best news for investors looking to buy! In addition to this, it seems like Genting Singapore's share price is quite stable, which could mean two things: firstly, it may take the share price a while to fall back down to an attractive buying range, and secondly, there may be less chances to buy low in the future once it reaches that value. This is because the stock is less volatile than the wider market given its low beta.

SGX:G13 Earnings and Revenue Growth September 8th 2024

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. Genting Singapore's earnings growth are expected to be in the teens in the upcoming years, indicating a solid future ahead. This should lead to robust cash flows, feeding into a higher share value.

What This Means For You

Are you a shareholder? It seems like the market has well and truly priced in G13'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 G13 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.

Are you a potential investor? If you've been keeping an eye on G13 for a while, now may not be the best time to enter into the stock. The price has surpassed its true value, which means there's no upside from mispricing. However, the positive outlook is encouraging for G13, which means it's worth diving deeper into other factors in order to take advantage of the next price drop.
