Valuation

Valuation signal

Significantly undervalued
Price
$21.51
Fair value
$44.93
Gap to fair value
−52%

In our model the price counts as cheap below $32.09 and expensive above $74.88 (uncertainty high, one part of the fair value is more than twice the other).

The two parts of the fair value come to $60.90 (cash-flow model) and $28.95 (industry comparison), and the gap between them shows how uncertain the estimate is. The price is below both.

Calculated with a cost of equity of 8.3%. At 9.3% the fair value would be $39.70, at 7.3% it would be $52.51.

Company outlook confirmed

Share price after the results: −1.8%

Third quarter EBITDA expected at $170 million to $210 million (second quarter $190 million), with a wider range because of Middle East uncertainty.

Supporting passage from the call, verbatim
“As a result, we expect Q3 EBITDA to range between $170 million-$210 million, with a wider range reflecting the increased uncertainty related to the renewed hostilities in the Strait of Hormuz.”

The outlook is not part of the score and not a recommendation to buy or sell.
