MasterBrand, Inc. (NYSE:MBC), is not the largest company out there, but it received a lot of attention from a substantial price movement on the NYSE over the last few months, increasing to US$19.20 at one point, and dropping to the lows of US$14.18. 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 MasterBrand's current trading price of US$14.18 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 MasterBrand’s outlook and value based on the most recent financial data to see if there are any catalysts for a price change.

What Is MasterBrand Worth?
Great news for investors – MasterBrand is still trading at a fairly cheap price. According to our valuation, the intrinsic value for the stock is $22.73, which is above what the market is valuing the company at the moment. This indicates a potential opportunity to buy low. What’s more interesting is that, MasterBrand’s share price is quite volatile, which gives us more chances to buy since the share price could sink lower (or rise higher) in the future. This is based on its high beta, which is a good indicator for how much the stock moves relative to the rest of the market.
What does the future of MasterBrand look like?
Investors looking for growth in their portfolio may want to consider the prospects of a company before buying its shares. 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. However, with a relatively muted revenue growth of 9.9% expected over the next couple of years, growth doesn’t seem like a key driver for a buy decision for MasterBrand, at least in the short term.
What This Means For You
Are you a shareholder? Even though growth is relatively muted, since MBC is currently undervalued, it may be a great time to increase your holdings in the stock. However, there are also other factors such as capital structure to consider, which could explain the current undervaluation.
Are you a potential investor? If you’ve been keeping an eye on MBC for a while, now might be the time to enter the stock. Its future outlook isn’t fully reflected in the current share price yet, which means it’s not too late to buy MBC. But before you make any investment decisions, consider other factors such as the track record of its management team, in order to make a well-informed buy.
