Tufin Software Technologies Ltd. (NYSE:TUFN), might not be a large cap stock, but it saw significant share price movement during recent months on the NYSE, rising to highs of US$18.92 and falling to the lows of US$10.12. 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 Tufin Software Technologies' current trading price of US$10.22 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 Tufin Software Technologies’s outlook and value based on the most recent financial data to see if there are any catalysts for a price change.

What is Tufin Software Technologies worth?

Good news, investors! Tufin Software Technologies is still a bargain right now. My valuation model shows that the intrinsic value for the stock is $16.97, which is above what the market is valuing the company at the moment. This indicates a potential opportunity to buy low. However, given that Tufin Software Technologies’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 kind of growth will Tufin Software Technologies generate?

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. Though in the case of Tufin Software Technologies, 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 TUFN is currently undervalued, the adverse prospect of negative growth brings about some degree of risk. Consider whether you want to increase your portfolio exposure to TUFN, 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 tabs on TUFN for some time, 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.
