Trelleborg (OM:TREL B) Stock May Be 28% Undervalued On Cash Flow

Trelleborg has delivered a powerful share price run over the past several years, and the current level now puts its long term cash generation under the microscope. With the stock closing at SEK 453.2 most recently, the key issue is whether the cash flows the business can produce support that kind of market value.

  • Trelleborg has returned 165.4% over the past 5 years, which puts a lot of accrued optimism about its future cash flows into the spotlight.

  • The group's focus on engineered polymer solutions can influence pricing power, investment needs and how efficiently profits convert into cash over time.

Is Trelleborg Still Cheap on Cash Flow?

The Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) model here looks at the cash Trelleborg can generate for shareholders over time and discounts it back to today. Latest twelve month free cash flow sits at about SEK3.6b, which already gives the group a sizeable cash engine relative to its SEK453.20 share price.

Analyst projections used in the 2 Stage Free Cash Flow to Equity model point to growing SEK free cash flows over the coming decade, then easing into more moderate expansion as the business matures. With the DCF projections putting Trelleborg's estimated intrinsic value meaningfully above the current share price, the current valuation assumes more cautious long run cash generation than this model does.
