What's The Opportunity In Axon Enterprise?

The stock is currently trading at US$189 on the share market, which means it is overvalued by 38% compared to my intrinsic value of $137.03. This means that the buying opportunity has probably disappeared for now. Furthermore, Axon Enterprise’s share price also seems relatively stable compared to the rest of the market, as indicated by its low beta. If you believe the share price should eventually reach its true value, a low beta could suggest it is unlikely to rapidly do so anytime soon, and once it’s there, it may be hard to fall back down into an attractive buying range.

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.

With profit expected to grow by 35% over the next couple of years, the future seems bright for Axon Enterprise. 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? It seems like the market has well and truly priced in AXON’s positive outlook, with shares trading above its fair value. At this current price, shareholders may be asking a different question – should I sell? If you believe AXON should trade below its current price, selling high and buying it back up again when its price falls towards its real value can be profitable. But before you make this decision, take a look at whether its fundamentals have changed.

Are you a potential investor? If you’ve been keeping tabs on AXON for some time, now may not be the best time to enter into the stock. The price has surpassed its true value, which means there’s no upside from mispricing. However, the optimistic prospect is encouraging for AXON, which means it’s worth diving deeper into other factors in order to take advantage of the next price drop.
