Sunningdale Tech Ltd (SGX:BHQ), which is in the machinery business, and is based in Singapore, received a lot of attention from a substantial price movement on the SGX over the last few months, increasing to SGD1.41 at one point, and dropping to the lows of SGD1.28. Some share price movements can give investors a better opportunity to enter into the stock, and potentially buy at a lower price. A question to answer is whether Sunningdale Tech's current trading price of SGD1.4 reflective of the actual value of the small-cap? Or is it currently undervalued, providing us with the opportunity to buy? Let’s take a look at Sunningdale Tech’s outlook and value based on the most recent financial data to see if there are any catalysts for a price change.

Is Sunningdale Tech still cheap?

Good news, investors! Sunningdale Tech is still a bargain right now. My valuation model shows that the intrinsic value for the stock is SGD2.61, but it is currently trading at S$1.40 on the share market, meaning that there is still an opportunity to buy now. However, given that Sunningdale Tech’s share is fairly volatile (i.e. its price movements are magnified relative to the rest of the market) this could mean the price can sink lower, giving us another chance to buy in the future. This is based on its high beta, which is a good indicator for share price volatility.

What does the future of Sunningdale Tech look like?

Future outlook is an important aspect when you’re looking at buying a stock, especially if you are an investor looking for growth in your portfolio. Although value investors would argue that it’s the intrinsic value relative to the price that matter the most, a more compelling investment thesis would be high growth potential at a cheap price. Though in the case of Sunningdale Tech, it is expected to deliver a highly negative earnings growth in the next few years, which doesn’t help build up its investment thesis. It appears that risk of future uncertainty is high, at least in the near term.

What this means for you:

Are you a shareholder? Although BHQ is currently undervalued, the adverse prospect of negative growth brings about some degree of risk. I recommend you think about whether you want to increase your portfolio exposure to BHQ, or whether diversifying into another stock may be a better move for your total risk and return.

Are you a potential investor? If you’ve been keeping an eye on BHQ for a while, but hesitant on making the leap, I recommend you research further into the stock. Given its current undervaluation, now is a great time to make a decision. But keep in mind the risks that come with negative growth prospects in the future.
