Should You Think About Buying 1-800-FLOWERS.COM, Inc. (NASDAQ:FLWS) Now?

In this article:

While 1-800-FLOWERS.COM, Inc. (NASDAQ:FLWS) might not have the largest market cap around , it saw a double-digit share price rise of over 10% in the past couple of months on the NASDAQGS. The recent rally in share prices has nudged the company in the right direction, though it still falls short of its yearly peak. With many analysts covering the stock, we may expect any price-sensitive announcements have already been factored into the stock’s share price. However, what if the stock is still a bargain? Let’s take a look at 1-800-FLOWERS.COM’s outlook and value based on the most recent financial data to see if the opportunity still exists.

What's The Opportunity In 1-800-FLOWERS.COM?

Great news for investors – 1-800-FLOWERS.COM is still trading at a fairly cheap price. According to our valuation, the intrinsic value for the stock is $13.92, which is above what the market is valuing the company at the moment. This indicates a potential opportunity to buy low. However, given that 1-800-FLOWERS.COM’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.

What kind of growth will 1-800-FLOWERS.COM generate?

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. However, with a relatively muted revenue growth of 1.3% expected over the next couple of years, growth doesn’t seem like a key driver for a buy decision for 1-800-FLOWERS.COM, at least in the short term.

What This Means For You

Are you a shareholder? Even though growth is relatively muted, since FLWS is currently undervalued, it may be a great time to increase your holdings in the stock. However, there are also other factors such as capital structure to consider, which could explain the current undervaluation.

Are you a potential investor? If you’ve been keeping an eye on FLWS for a while, now might be the time to enter the stock. Its future outlook isn’t fully reflected in the current share price yet, which means it’s not too late to buy FLWS. But before you make any investment decisions, consider other factors such as the track record of its management team, in order to make a well-informed investment decision.
