Is Now The Time To Look At Buying Pentair plc (NYSE:PNR)?

Simply Wall St·07/02/2025 17:11:40
Listen to the news

Today we're going to take a look at the well-established Pentair plc (NYSE:PNR). The company's stock saw a significant share price rise of 38% in the past couple of months on the NYSE. The recent share price gains has brought the company back closer to its yearly peak. With many analysts covering the large-cap stock, we may expect any price-sensitive announcements have already been factored into the stock’s share price. However, what if the stock is still a bargain? Today we will analyse the most recent data on Pentair’s outlook and valuation to see if the opportunity still exists.

What Is Pentair Worth?

According to our valuation model, Pentair seems to be fairly priced at around 17.79% above our intrinsic value, which means if you buy Pentair today, you’d be paying a relatively reasonable price for it. And if you believe that the stock is really worth $89.19, there’s only an insignificant downside when the price falls to its real value. So, is there another chance to buy low in the future? Given that Pentair’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 an opportunity to buy later on. This is based on its high beta, which is a good indicator for share price volatility.
