Is Prism Johnson still cheap?

Prism Johnson appears to be overvalued by 56% at the moment, based on my discounted cash flow valuation. The stock is currently priced at ₹110.45 on the market compared to my intrinsic value of ₹70.93. This means that the opportunity to buy Prism Johnson at a good price has disappeared! But, is there another opportunity to buy low in the future? Given that Prism Johnson’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.

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 revenues expected to grow by 34.63% over the next couple of years, the future seems bright for Prism Johnson. If the level of expenses is able to be maintained, it looks like higher cash flows is on the cards for the stock, which should feed into a higher share valuation.

What this means for you:

Are you a shareholder? It seems like the market has well and truly priced in PRSMJOHNSN’s positive outlook, with shares trading above its fair value. At this current price, shareholders may be asking a different question – should I sell? If you believe PRSMJOHNSN 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 PRSMJOHNSN 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 optimistic prospect is encouraging for PRSMJOHNSN, which means it’s worth diving deeper into other factors in order to take advantage of the next price drop.
