In the case of IVE Group Limited (ASX:IGL), there's is a financially-sound company with a a great track record of performance, trading at a great value. Below, I've touched on some key aspects you should know on a high level. For those interested in understanding where the figures come from and want to see the analysis, take a look at the report on IVE Group here.
Undervalued with proven track record and pays a dividend
Over the past few years, IGL has demonstrated a proven ability to generate robust returns of 6.9% Not surprisingly, IGL outperformed its industry which returned 5.1%, giving us more conviction of the company's capacity to drive bottom-line growth going forward. IGL is financially robust, with ample cash on hand and short-term investments to meet upcoming liabilities. This suggests prudent control over cash and cost by management, which is a crucial insight into the health of the company. IGL seems to have put its debt to good use, generating operating cash levels of 0.28x total debt in the most recent year. This is also a good indication as to whether debt is properly covered by the company’s cash flows.
IGL's shares are now trading at a price below its true value based on its discounted cash flows, indicating a relatively pessimistic market sentiment. This mispricing gives investors the opportunity to buy into the stock at a cheap price compared to the value they will be receiving, should analysts' consensus forecast growth be correct. Also, relative to the rest of its peers with similar levels of earnings, IGL's share price is trading below the group's average. This supports the theory that IGL is potentially underpriced.
