Buy Alert - A2 Milk (A2M)
It has been an incredibly tough time for A2M over the past 12 months with the share price halving as a combination of management issues and demand reductions thanks to COVID at a time when the company was maturing, and growth was becoming more difficult. As earnings growth deteriorated and the market lost faith in management, they experienced a significant P/E re-rate and a large short position (42m shares) built.
We have been looking at A2 for many months, targeting a move below $10. That has now played out and we believe a lot of negative news has already been built into the share price. We are bullish from current levels and are adding it to the Flagship Growth Portfolio around $10.10 with a 3% portfolio weighting.
We view this as a high risk stocks given their upcoming result and plan to hold over the medium term.
