Cheap Stocks To Watch Out For In March

Yanzhou Coal Mining and Logan Property Holdings are two of the companies on my list that I consider are undervalued. There’s a few ways you can measure the value of a company – you can forecast how much money it will make in the future and base your valuation off of this, or you can look around at its peers of similar size and industry to roughly estimate what it should be worth. Below, I’ve created a list of companies that compare favourably in all criteria based on their most recent financial data, making them potentially good investments.

Yanzhou Coal Mining Company Limited (SEHK:1171)

Yanzhou Coal Mining Company Limited, together with its subsidiaries, engages in the exploration, mining, washing, processing, and sale of coal in China, Japan, South Korea, and Australia. Started in 1973, and headed by CEO Xiangqian Wu, the company provides employment to 68,550 people and with the market cap of HKD HK$69.78B, it falls under the large-cap group.

1171’s shares are currently trading at -42% lower than its actual worth of ¥17.23, at a price tag of HK$10.00, based on my discounted cash flow model. This price and value mismatch indicates a potential opportunity to buy the stock at a low price. What’s even more appeal is that 1171’s PE ratio is trading at around 6.8x relative to its Oil and Gas peer level of, 9.31x implying that relative to its comparable set of companies, you can buy 1171’s shares at a cheaper price. 1171 is also a financially robust company, as short-term assets amply cover upcoming and long-term liabilities.
