Is it time to consider buying Eagle Eye Solutions Group plc (LON:EYE)?

Eagle Eye Solutions Group plc (LON:EYE) may not be a large cap stock, but its share price has seen some significant swings in recent months on AIM, with it rising to highs of £5.05 and falling to as low as £4.55. Some share price movements can give investors a better opportunity to enter the stock and potentially buy at a lower price. The question to answer is whether Eagle Eye Solutions Group’s current share price of £4.80 reflects the true value of the small cap stock? Or is it currently undervalued, giving us an opportunity to buy? Let’s take a look at Eagle Eye Solutions Group’s outlook and value based on the latest financial data to see if there are any catalysts for a price change.

What is the value of Eagle Eye Solutions Group?

Eagle Eye Solutions Group appears to be 35% overvalued at present, based on our discounted cash flow valuation. The stock is currently trading at £4.80 on the market, compared to our intrinsic value of £3.54. This is not the best news for investors looking to buy! Another thing to keep in mind is that Eagle Eye Solutions Group’s share price is fairly stable relative to the market, as indicated by its low beta. This means that if you believe that the current share price should move towards its intrinsic value over time, a low beta could suggest that it is unlikely to reach that level anytime soon, and once it does, it could be difficult to fall back into an attractive buying range.

What does the future look like for Eagle Eye Solutions Group?

Investors looking for growth in their portfolio may want to consider a company’s prospects before buying its shares. While value investors would argue that it’s the intrinsic value relative to the price that matters most, a more compelling investment thesis would be high growth potential at a cheap price. However, with an extremely negative double-digit change in earnings expected next year, near-term growth is certainly not a major factor in a buying decision. It seems that a lot of uncertainty is on the cards for Eagle Eye Solutions Group, at least in the near future.

What this means for you

Are you a shareholder? If you believe that EYE stock is currently trading above its value, it may be profitable to sell it at a high price and buy it back when its price returns to its real value. Given the uncertainty of future negative growth, this could be a good time to reduce the risks in your portfolio. But before you make that decision, check whether its fundamentals have changed.

Are you a potential investor? If you’ve been following EYE for a while, now might not be the best time to get in on the stock. Its price has risen beyond its real value, plus it has a negative future outlook. However, there are also other important factors that we haven’t considered today, such as its management’s track record. If the price drops in the future, will you be well-informed enough to buy?
