Description

Analysis

Bargain bin

Playtech plc is priced cheaply, and that invites the natural question of why, since the underlying business scores below average.

On valuation, the picture is attractive. The owner-earnings multiple stands at 0.7×; owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year.

Growth is solid; the safety picture is sturdy. The company scores 6/20 on our value-creation score: not creating value.

Flags to be aware of: Reported profits have run ahead of actual cash for several periods. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
