AB Electrolux (publ) (STO:ELUX B), might not be a large cap stock, but it saw a significant share price rise of 24% in the past couple of months on the OM. While good news for shareholders, the company has traded much higher in the past year. With many analysts covering the stock, we may expect any price-sensitive announcements have already been factored into the stock’s share price. However, could the stock still be trading at a relatively cheap price? Let’s take a look at AB Electrolux’s outlook and value based on the most recent financial data to see if the opportunity still exists.

What Is AB Electrolux Worth?

The share price seems sensible at the moment according to our price multiple model, where we compare the company's price-to-earnings ratio to the industry average. 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 AB Electrolux’s ratio of 30.47x is trading slightly below its industry peers’ ratio of 30.47x, which means if you buy AB Electrolux today, you’d be paying a reasonable price for it. And if you believe that AB Electrolux should be trading at this level in the long run, then there’s not much of an upside to gain over and above other industry peers. So, is there another chance to buy low in the future? Given that AB Electrolux’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.
