Is Capri Holdings (CPRI) Stock Undervalued Right Now?

Here at Zacks, our focus is on the proven Zacks Rank system, which emphasizes earnings estimates and estimate revisions to find great stocks. Nevertheless, we are always paying attention to the latest value, growth, and momentum trends to underscore strong picks.

Looking at the history of these trends, perhaps none is more beloved than value investing. This strategy simply looks to identify companies that are being undervalued by the broader market. Value investors rely on traditional forms of analysis on key valuation metrics to find stocks that they believe are undervalued, leaving room for profits.

Luckily, Zacks has developed its own Style Scores system in an effort to find stocks with specific traits. Value investors will be interested in the system's "Value" category. Stocks with both "A" grades in the Value category and high Zacks Ranks are among the strongest value stocks on the market right now.

One company value investors might notice is Capri Holdings (CPRI). CPRI is currently sporting a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy), as well as a Value grade of A. The stock holds a P/E ratio of 13.5, while its industry has an average P/E of 13.84. Over the past year, CPRI's Forward P/E has been as high as 20.01 and as low as 8.03, with a median of 13.50.

CPRI's industry has an average PEG of 0.85 right now. CPRI's PEG has been as high as 7.00 and as low as 0.32, with a median of 4.20, all within the past year.

Investors could also keep in mind Urban Outfitters (URBN), another Retail - Apparel and Shoes stock with a Zacks Rank of #2 (Buy) and Value grade of A.
