Read MoreHide Full Article
Have you been paying attention to shares of Intapp (INTA - Free Report) ? Shares have been on the move with the stock up 27.8% over the past month. The stock hit a new 52-week high of $45.81 in the previous session. Intapp has gained 20.5% since the start of the year compared to the 21.1% move for the Zacks Computer and Technology sector and the 14.2% return for the Zacks Internet - Software industry.
What's Driving the Outperformance?
The stock has a great record of positive earnings surprises, as it hasn't missed our earnings consensus estimate in any of the last four quarters. In its last earnings report on August 13, 2024, Intapp reported EPS of $0.15 versus consensus estimate of $0.12.
For the current fiscal year, Intapp is expected to post earnings of $0.62 per share on $495.92 million in revenues. This represents a 37.78% change in EPS on a 15.19% change in revenues. For the next fiscal year, the company is expected to earn $0.87 per share on $568.77 million in revenues. This represents a year-over-year change of 40.55% and 14.69%, respectively.
Valuation Metrics
Intapp may be at a 52-week high right now, but what might the future hold for the stock? A key aspect of this question is taking a look at valuation metrics in order to determine if the company is due for a pullback from this level.
On this front, we can look at the Zacks Style Scores, as they provide investors with an additional way to sort through stocks (beyond looking at the Zacks Rank of a security). These styles are represented by grades running from A to F in the categories of Value, Growth, and Momentum, while there is a combined VGM Score as well. The idea behind the style scores is to help investors pick the most appropriate Zacks Rank stocks based on their individual investment style.
Intapp has a Value Score of F. The stock's Growth and Momentum Scores are A and A, respectively, giving the company a VGM Score of B.
In terms of its value breakdown, the stock currently trades at 73.9X current fiscal year EPS estimates, which is a premium to the peer industry average of 30X. On a trailing cash flow basis, the stock currently trades at 318.5X versus its peer group's average of 22.7X. Additionally, the stock has a PEG ratio of 2.44. This isn't enough to put the company in the top echelon of all stocks we cover from a value perspective.
Zacks Rank
We also need to consider the stock's Zacks Rank, as this supersedes any trend on the style score front. Fortunately, Intapp currently has a Zacks Rank of #2 (Buy) thanks to rising earnings estimates.
Since we recommend that investors select stocks carrying Zacks Rank of 1 (Strong Buy) or 2 (Buy) and Style Scores of A or B, it looks as if Intapp fits the bill. Thus, it seems as though Intapp shares could have potential in the weeks and months to come.
How Does INTA Stack Up to the Competition?
Shares of INTA have been soaring, and the company still appears to be a decent choice, but what about the rest of the industry? One industry peer that looks good is Grindr Inc. (GRND - Free Report) . GRND has a Zacks Rank of # 2 (Buy) and a Value Score of D, a Growth Score of B, and a Momentum Score of A.
Earnings were strong last quarter. Grindr Inc. beat our consensus estimate by 40%, and for the current fiscal year, GRND is expected to post earnings of -$0.03 per share on revenue of $335.2 million.
Shares of Grindr Inc. have gained 1.8% over the past month, and currently trade at a forward P/E of 47.36X and a P/CF of 60.65X.
The Internet - Software industry is in the top 39% of all the industries we have in our universe, so it looks like there are some nice tailwinds for INTA and GRND, even beyond their own solid fundamental situation.
