While Basler Aktiengesellschaft (ETR:BSL) might not have the largest market cap around , it received a lot of attention from a substantial price movement on the XTRA over the last few months, increasing to €11.34 at one point, and dropping to the lows of €8.35. Some share price movements can give investors a better opportunity to enter into the stock, and potentially buy at a lower price.

Let’s take a look at Basler’s outlook and value based on the most recent financial data to see if there are any catalysts for a price change.

Good news, investors! Basler is still a bargain right now. Our valuation model shows that the intrinsic value for the stock is €12.62, but it is currently trading at €8.68 on the share market, meaning that there is still an opportunity to buy now. However, given that Basler’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 another chance to buy in the future. This is based on its high beta, which is a good indicator for share price volatility.
Investors looking for growth in their portfolio may want to consider the prospects of a company before buying its shares.

In Basler's case, its revenues over the next few years are expected to grow by 60%, indicating a highly optimistic future ahead. If expense does not increase by the same rate, or higher, this top line growth should lead to stronger cash flows, feeding into a higher share value.
Are you a shareholder? Since BSL is currently undervalued, it may be a great time to increase your holdings in the stock. With an optimistic outlook on the horizon, it seems like this growth has not yet been fully factored into the share price. However, there are also other factors such as capital structure to consider, which could explain the current undervaluation.
Are you a potential investor? If you’ve been keeping an eye on BSL for a while, now might be the time to make a leap. Its prosperous future outlook isn’t fully reflected in the current share price yet, which means it’s not too late to buy BSL. But before you make any investment decisions, consider other factors such as the strength of its balance sheet, in order to make a well-informed investment decision.
