What is LLOY worth?

Great news for investors – LLOY is still trading at a fairly cheap price. According to my valuation, the intrinsic value for the stock is £0.81 which is above what the market is valuing the company at the moment. This indicates a potential opportunity to buy low. LLOY’s share price also seems relatively stable compared to the rest of the market, as indicated by its low beta. If you believe the share price should eventually reach its true value, a low beta could suggest it is unlikely to rapidly do so anytime soon, and once it’s there, it may be hard to fall back down into an attractive buying range.
