High Value Score Stocks - S&P 500

Print ArticleEmail Article

Applied Finance Group’s (AFG’s) Value Score defined - A score which represents the ranked percent to target (deviation between stock’s current trading price and AFG’s current default target price) or attractiveness (upside) relative to the universe. A Value Score of 100 is the most undervalued and 0 is the most overvalued company in the universe.

These stocks all have an AFG Value Score above 95 which means these companies are in the top 5% in percentage upside relative to the universe based on AFG’s default target price. All of these companies also have lower sales growth numbers priced-in to justify the current stock price (VE Sales Growth) than what the company has achieved in the last 5 years (5 Year Median Sales Growth). Low expectations for sales growth compared to the actual sales growth achieved is a good sign the company can beat those expectations and will be more likely to out-perform. Low expectations coupled with attractive default AFG Valuation is a good starting point when looking for possible investment opportunities. Although these companies may not be able to achieve the same levels of sales growth they have experienced in the past 5 years, the expectations are so low that they do not have to return to those numbers to beat the very low expectations.
