In this context, understanding the fundamentals and potential resilience of a company can be crucial for spotting undervalued stocks that could offer long-term growth despite current market challenges.

The company's earnings and revenue are projected to grow substantially faster than the Italian market, with annual growth forecasts of 56.3% and 48.4%, respectively.

Bang & Olufsen is trading at DKK 13.76, below its estimated fair value of DKK 16.95, suggesting it may be undervalued based on cash flows. Despite recent losses and shareholder dilution, the company maintains revenue growth guidance and forecasts a significant earnings increase of 116.63% per year, surpassing Danish market averages. However, low future return on equity at 6.2% remains a concern amidst these growth projections and executive changes in the boardroom could impact strategic direction.

The company's earnings grew by 25.8% last year and are forecast to grow annually by 10.26%, outpacing the Norwegian market's growth rate of 7.9%.
