What Is The Future Prospect For Basic Materials And Herencia Resources plc (AIM:HER)?

Publié le 08 décembre 2017

AIM:HER PE PEG Gauge Dec 9th 17

The metals and mining sector’s PE is currently hovering around 13x, relatively similar to the rest of the UK stock market PE of 18x. This illustrates a fairly valued sector relative to the rest of the market, indicating low mispricing opportunities. However, the industry returned a lower 9.77% compared to the market’s 12.78%, potentially indicative of past headwinds. Since HER’s earnings doesn’t seem to reflect its true value, its PE ratio isn’t very useful. A loose alternative to gauge HER’s value is to assume the stock should be relatively in-line with its industry.

What this means for you:

Are you a shareholder? HER has been a metals and mining industry laggard in the past year. If your initial investment thesis is around the growth prospects of HER, there are other metals and mining companies that have delivered higher growth, and perhaps trading at a discount to the industry average. Consider how HER fits into your wider portfolio and the opportunity cost of holding onto the stock.

Are you a potential investor? If HER has been on your watchlist for a while, now may be a good time to dig deeper into the stock. Although its growth has delivered lower growth relative to its metals and mining peers in the near term, the market may be pessimistic on the stock, leading to a potential undervaluation. Before you make a decision on the stock, I suggest you look at HER’s future cash flows in order to assess whether the stock is trading at a reasonable price.
