Approach 1: Super Group (SGHC) Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) Analysis

A Discounted Cash Flow, or DCF, model takes forecasts of a company’s future cash flows and discounts them back to today’s dollars to estimate what the business might be worth right now.

For Super Group (SGHC), the model used is a 2 Stage Free Cash Flow to Equity approach based on cash flow projections. The latest twelve month free cash flow is reported at about $246.5 million. Analyst input covers the nearer years, and Simply Wall St then extrapolates further out, with projected free cash flow for 2035 of about $833.7 million. All of these figures are in US$.

Pulling those discounted cash flows together gives an estimated intrinsic value of around $23.89 per share. Compared with the last closing price of $12.34, the DCF output implies the shares trade at about a 48.4% discount to this estimate, which indicates that, on this model alone, SGHC appears to be undervalued.

Result: UNDERVALUED

Approach 2: Super Group (SGHC) Price vs Earnings

For profitable companies, the P/E ratio is a useful shorthand because it directly links what you pay per share to the earnings that business is generating today. Investors typically expect higher P/Es when they see stronger growth potential or lower perceived risk, and lower P/Es when growth expectations are more muted or risks are higher.

Super Group (SGHC) currently trades on a P/E of about 28.9x. That sits above the Hospitality industry average P/E of around 21.1x and is close to the peer average of about 28.1x. Simply Wall St also calculates a proprietary “Fair Ratio” for the P/E, which blends factors such as earnings growth characteristics, industry, profit margins, market cap and identified risks, to estimate what could be a more tailored P/E for this specific company.

This Fair Ratio for Super Group is 27.2x, which can be more informative than a simple peer or industry comparison because it adjusts for company specific features rather than assuming one size fits all. Compared with the actual P/E of 28.9x, the shares look somewhat expensive relative to this Fair Ratio based yardstick.

Result: OVERVALUED

Narratives are updated when new information such as news or earnings arrives.
