    Profits of Market Cool On The Grounds Real Estate Development AG (ETR:AMMN)

    The Grounds Real Estate Development AG’s (ETR: AMMN) a price-to-earnings (or “P/E”) ratio of 5.5x might make it look like a solid buy right now relative to the German market, where around half of companies have P/E ratios above 16x and even P/E above 30x are quite common. Nevertheless, we would need to dig a little deeper to determine if there is a rational basis for the sharply reduced P/E.

    Recent times have been good for Grounds Real Estate Development as its profits have grown faster than most other companies. One possibility is that the P/E is weak because investors believe this strong earnings performance may be less impressive going forward. If not, existing shareholders have reason to be quite optimistic about the future direction of the stock price.

    Is there growth for land real estate development?

    There is an inherent assumption that a company would have to significantly underperform the market for P/E ratios like that of Grounds Real Estate Development to be considered reasonable.

    Looking back, last year provided an exceptional 42% gain in the company’s bottom line. Fortunately, EPS was also up 67% overall compared to three years ago, thanks to the last 12 months of growth. So we can start by confirming that the company has done a great job of growing earnings over this period.

    Looking ahead, EPS is expected to climb 17% annually over the next three years according to the two analysts who track the company. This looks to be significantly higher than forecast growth of 13% per year for the market as a whole.

    In light of this, it’s odd that Grounds Real Estate Development’s P/E falls below the majority of other companies. Apparently, some shareholders doubt the forecast and have accepted significantly lower selling prices.

    The last word

    We would argue that the power of the P/E ratio is not primarily a valuation tool, but rather to gauge current investor sentiment and future expectations.

    We have established that Grounds Real Estate Development is currently trading on a much weaker P/E than expected as its expected growth outpaces that of the broader market. There could be major unobserved threats to earnings preventing the P/E ratio from matching the positive outlook. At least the price risks seem very low, but investors seem to think that future earnings could see great volatility.
