AIM:GRL PE PEG Gauge Jan 25th 18
More Metals and mining companies are typically trading at a PE of 14x, relatively similar to the rest of the UK stock market PE of 18.5x. This means the industry, on average, is fairly valued compared to the wider market – minimal expected gains and losses from mispricing here. Furthermore, the industry returned a similar 11.26% on equities compared to the market’s 12.77%. Since Goldstone Resources’s earnings doesn’t seem to reflect its true value, its PE ratio isn’t very useful. A loose alternative to gauge Goldstone Resources’s value is to assume the stock should be relatively in-line with its industry.
Next Steps: Goldstone Resources has been a metals and mining industry laggard in the past year. If Goldstone Resources has been on your watchlist for a while, now may be a good time to dig deeper into the stock. Although it delivered lower growth relative to its materials peers in the near term, the market may be pessimistic on the stock, leading to a potential undervaluation. However, before you make a decision on the stock, I suggest you look at Goldstone Resources’s fundamentals in order to build a holistic investment thesis.
