Preferred Price-to-Sales of 0.7x: Is it justified?

On simple sales-based metrics, Canaccord Genuity Group looks inexpensive. The stock closed at CA$14.79, yet the business trades on a P/S of 0.7x while still reporting CA$2,221.61m in revenue and a market value of about CA$1.49b.

The P/S ratio compares the value that equity markets place on the company to the revenue it generates. For a diversified capital markets and wealth management group like Canaccord Genuity Group, this measure helps you judge how much investors are willing to pay for each dollar of advisory, trading and wealth fees, especially when earnings are currently negative and profit based multiples are less informative.

What really jumps out is the gap to peers. Management is running a business that screens as good value on several checks, yet the market is still pricing Canaccord Genuity Group materially lower than the Canadian capital markets sector and direct peers on the same sales yardstick. The P/S of 0.7x compares with a 2.7x industry average and a 1.7x peer average. It also sits well below an estimated fair P/S ratio of 4.7x that some models suggest the market could eventually move towards if sentiment and fundamentals align.
