Is It Time To Consider Buying Etsy, Inc. (NASDAQ:ETSY)?

Let's talk about the popular Etsy, Inc. (NASDAQ:ETSY). The company's shares saw a significant share price rise of over 20% in the past couple of months on the NASDAQGS. With many analysts covering the large-cap stock, we may expect any price-sensitive announcements have already been factored into the stock’s share price. However, could the stock still be trading at a relatively cheap price? Today I will analyse the most recent data on Etsy’s outlook and valuation to see if the opportunity still exists.

Is Etsy Still Cheap?

Good news, investors! Etsy is still a bargain right now. My valuation model shows that the intrinsic value for the stock is $217.68, but it is currently trading at US$139 on the share market, meaning that there is still an opportunity to buy now. What’s more interesting is that, Etsy’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 Etsy 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. Buying a great company with a robust outlook at a cheap price is always a good investment, so let’s also take a look at the company's future expectations. With revenues expected to grow by 43% over the next couple of years, the future seems bright for Etsy. If the level of expenses is able to be maintained, it looks like higher cash flow is on the cards for the stock, which should feed into a higher share valuation.

What This Means For You

Are you a shareholder? Since ETSY is currently undervalued, it may be a great time to accumulate more of your holdings in the stock. With a positive outlook on the horizon, it seems like this growth has not yet been fully factored into the share price. However, there are also other factors such as financial health to consider, which could explain the current undervaluation.

Are you a potential investor? If you’ve been keeping an eye on ETSY for a while, now might be the time to enter the stock. Its prosperous future outlook isn’t fully reflected in the current share price yet, which means it’s not too late to buy ETSY. 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.
