Why Olink Holding AB (publ) (NASDAQ:OLK) Could Be Worth Watching

Olink Holding AB (publ) (NASDAQ:OLK), is not the largest company out there, but it saw a double-digit share price rise of over 10% in the past couple of months on the NASDAQGM. With many analysts covering the mid-cap 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?

What Is Olink Holding Worth?

According to my valuation model, Olink Holding seems to be fairly priced at around 3.5% below my intrinsic value, which means if you buy Olink Holding today, you’d be paying a fair price for it. And if you believe the company’s true value is $23.23, then there’s not much of an upside to gain from mispricing. What's more, Olink Holding’s share price may be more stable over time (relative to the market), as indicated by its low beta.

Can we expect growth from Olink Holding?

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. However, with an extremely negative double-digit change in profit expected next year, near-term growth is certainly not a driver of a buy decision. It seems like high uncertainty is on the cards for Olink Holding, at least in the near future.

What This Means For You

Are you a shareholder? OLK seems fairly priced right now, but given the uncertainty from negative returns in the future, this could be the right time to de-risk your portfolio. Is your current exposure to the stock optimal for your total portfolio? And is the opportunity cost of holding a negative-outlook stock too high? Before you make a decision on the stock, take a look at whether its fundamentals have changed.

Are you a potential investor? If you’ve been keeping tabs on OLK for a while, now may not be the most optimal time to buy, given it is trading around its fair value. The stock appears to be trading at fair value, which means there’s less benefit from mispricing. In addition to this, the negative growth outlook increases the risk of holding the stock. However, there are also other important factors we haven’t considered today, which can help crystalize your views on OLK should the price fluctuate below its true value.
