I've been keeping an eye on Austevoll Seafood ASA (OB:AUSS) because I'm attracted to its fundamentals. Looking at the company as a whole, as a potential stock investment, I believe AUSS has a lot to offer. Basically, it is a company that has been able to sustain great financial health, trading at an attractive share price. Below, I've touched on some key aspects you should know on a high level. If you're interested in understanding beyond my broad commentary, take a look at the report on Austevoll Seafood here.
Very undervalued with excellent balance sheet
AUSS's ability to maintain an adequate level of cash to meet upcoming liabilities is a good sign for its financial health. This implies that AUSS manages its cash and cost levels well, which is a crucial insight into the health of the company. AUSS seems to have put its debt to good use, generating operating cash levels of 0.24x total debt in the most recent year. This is also a good indication as to whether debt is properly covered by the company’s cash flows. AUSS is currently trading below its true value, which means the market is undervaluing the company's expected cash flow going forward. According to my intrinsic value of the stock, which is driven by analyst consensus forecast of AUSS's earnings, investors now have the opportunity to buy into the stock to reap capital gains. Also, relative to the rest of its peers with similar levels of earnings, AUSS's share price is trading below the group's average. This supports the theory that AUSS is potentially underpriced.
