1 Oversold Stock Ready to Bounce Back and 2 That Underwhelm
Hitting a new 52-week low can be a pivotal moment for any stock. These floors often mark either the beginning of a turnaround story or confirmation that a company faces serious headwinds.
At StockStory, we dig beneath the surface of price movements to uncover whether a company's fundamentals justify its current valuation or suggest hidden potential. That said, here is one stock where you should be greedy instead of fearful and two where the outlook is warranted.
Two Stocks to Sell:
Torrid (CURV)
One-Month Return: -12.8%
Promoting a message of body positivity and inclusiveness, Torrid Holdings (NYSE: CURV) is a plus-size women’s apparel and accessories retailer.
Why Do We Steer Clear of CURV?
- Poor same-store sales performance over the past two years indicates it’s having trouble bringing new shoppers into its brick-and-mortar locations
- Forecasted revenue decline of 5.8% for the upcoming 12 months implies demand will fall off a cliff
- Falling earnings per share over the last three years has some investors worried as stock prices ultimately follow EPS over the long term
Torrid is trading at $2.18 per share, or 17.3x forward P/E. If you’re considering CURV for your portfolio, see our FREE research report to learn more.
Sweetgreen (SG)
One-Month Return: -23.6%
Founded in 2007 by three Georgetown University alum, Sweetgreen (NYSE: SG) is a casual quick service chain known for its healthy salads and bowls.
Why Is SG Not Exciting?
- Suboptimal cost structure is highlighted by its history of operating margin losses
- Free cash flow margin shrank by 7.3 percentage points over the last year, suggesting the company is consuming more capital to stay competitive
- Short cash runway increases the probability of a capital raise that dilutes existing shareholders
Sweetgreen’s stock price of $9.11 implies a valuation ratio of 26.4x forward EV-to-EBITDA. Check out our free in-depth research report to learn more about why SG doesn’t pass our bar.
One Stock to Watch:
Everest Group (EG)
One-Month Return: +3.2%
Rebranded from Everest Re in 2023 to reflect its evolution beyond just reinsurance, Everest Group (NYSE: EG) underwrites property and casualty reinsurance and insurance worldwide, serving insurance companies, corporations, and other clients across six continents.
Why Does EG Stand Out?
- Annual revenue growth of 15.4% over the last two years was superb and indicates its market share increased during this cycle
- Net premiums earned expanded by 14% annually over the last five years, demonstrating exceptional market penetration this cycle
- Book value per share outlook for the upcoming 12 months implies the firm will stay on its desirable two-year capital growth trajectory
At $341.88 per share, Everest Group trades at 0.9x forward P/B. Is now the right time to buy? See for yourself in our in-depth research report, it’s free.
