While Frencken Group Limited (SGX:E28) might not have the largest market cap around , it received a lot of attention from a substantial price increase on the SGX over the last few months. The company is inching closer to its yearly highs following the recent share price climb. As a stock with high coverage by analysts, you could assume any recent changes in the company’s outlook is already priced into the stock. But what if there is still an opportunity to buy? Today we will analyse the most recent data on Frencken Group’s outlook and valuation to see if the opportunity still exists.

Is Frencken Group Still Cheap?

According to our price multiple model, which makes a comparison between the company's price-to-earnings ratio and the industry average, the stock price seems to be justfied. In this instance, we’ve used the price-to-earnings (PE) ratio given that there is not enough information to reliably forecast the stock’s cash flows. We find that Frencken Group’s ratio of 16.68x is trading slightly above its industry peers’ ratio of 14.03x, which means if you buy Frencken Group today, you’d be paying a relatively sensible price for it. And if you believe Frencken Group should be trading in this range, then there isn’t really any room for the share price grow beyond the levels of other industry peers over the long-term. So, is there another chance to buy low in the future? Given that Frencken Group’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 an opportunity to buy later on. This is based on its high beta, which is a good indicator for share price volatility.
