Reassessing Olav Thon Eiendomsselskap (OB:OLT): Is a 14x P/E Multiple Still Undervaluing the Stock?

Listen to the news

Olav Thon Eiendomsselskap (OB:OLT) has been quietly rewarding patient investors, with the share price climbing about 24 % over the past month and more than 55 % in the past year.

See our latest analysis for Olav Thon Eiendomsselskap.

That strong 1 year total shareholder return of 55.79 % and a solid 3 year total shareholder return of 113.43 % suggest momentum is building as investors reprice the risk reward balance for its Nordic property portfolio.

If this kind of rerating has you curious about what else is out there, it could be a good time to explore fast growing stocks with high insider ownership.

But with the share price now hovering just below analyst targets and recent earnings growth looking subdued, investors face a key question: is Olav Thon Eiendomsselskap still undervalued, or is the market already pricing in future gains?

Price-to-Earnings of 14x: Is it justified?

On a price-to-earnings ratio of 14x at the last close of NOK333, Olav Thon Eiendomsselskap screens as attractively valued against both peers and the wider European real estate sector.

The price-to-earnings multiple compares the company’s current share price to its per share earnings. It is a key gauge of how much investors are willing to pay for today’s profits. For a mature Nordic property landlord, it is a useful shorthand for how the market is balancing stable rental income against modest growth expectations.

Here, the 14x multiple sits below both the European real estate industry average of 14.5x and the broader sector average of 16.7x. This implies investors are paying a relative discount for each krone of earnings. It is also well under the estimated fair price-to-earnings ratio of 19.4x, a level the market could move toward if confidence in cash flows and earnings durability continues to build.

Against peer and industry benchmarks, that discount is hard to ignore. Trading below a 17x peer average and the 19.4x fair ratio suggests the market has not fully repriced the company’s improving profitability.

However, subdued earnings growth and the shares already trading near analyst targets could limit further upside if rental markets or interest rates deteriorate.
