The low valuation multiples for value stocks provide a margin of safety that growth stocks rarely offer. However, the challenge lies in determining whether these cheap assets are genuinely undervalued or simply on sale due to their potentially deteriorating business models.

This distinction between true value and value traps can challenge even the most skilled investors. Luckily for you, we started StockStory to help you uncover exceptional companies. Keeping that in mind, here is one value stock trading at a big discount to its intrinsic value and two best left ignored.

Two Value Stocks to Sell:

Campbell's (CPB)

Forward P/E Ratio: 12.6x

With its iconic canned soup as its cornerstone product, Campbell's (NASDAQ: CPB) is a packaged food company with an illustrious portfolio of brands.

Why Do We Think CPB Will Underperform?

1. Declining unit sales over the past two years suggest it might have to lower prices to stimulate growth
2. Estimated sales decline of 3.1% for the next 12 months implies a challenging demand environment
3. Incremental sales over the last three years were less profitable as its 1.6% annual earnings per share growth lagged its revenue gains

Campbell's is trading at $31.10 per share, or 12.6x forward P/E. If you’re considering CPB for your portfolio, see our FREE research report to learn more.

Concentrix (CNXC)

Forward P/E Ratio: 3.8x

With a team of approximately 450,000 employees across 75 countries, Concentrix (NASDAQ: CNXC) designs and delivers customer experience solutions that help global brands manage their customer interactions across digital channels and contact centers.

Why Do We Think Twice About CNXC?

1. Annual earnings per share growth of 2.5% underperformed its revenue over the last two years, showing its incremental sales were less profitable
2. Low returns on capital reflect management’s struggle to allocate funds effectively, and its decreasing returns suggest its historical profit centers are aging
3. Diminishing returns on capital from an already low starting point show that neither management’s prior nor current bets are going as planned

At $45.13 per share, Concentrix trades at 3.8x forward P/E. Dive into our free research report to see why there are better opportunities than CNXC.

One Value Stock to Watch:

Goldman Sachs (GS)

Forward P/E Ratio: 14.1x

Founded in 1869 as a small commercial paper business in New York City, Goldman Sachs (NYSE: GS) is a global financial institution that provides investment banking, securities, asset management, and consumer banking services to corporations, governments, and individuals.

Why Are We Fans of GS?

1. Annual revenue growth of 13.5% over the last two years beat the sector average and underscores the unique value of its offerings
2. Share repurchases over the last two years enabled its annual earnings per share growth of 53.7% to outpace its revenue gains
3. Annual tangible book value per share growth of 10% over the last five years beat the financials sector average and underscores the improved strength of its balance sheet

Goldman Sachs’s stock price of $760.95 implies a valuation ratio of 14.1x forward P/E. Is now the time to initiate a position? See for yourself in our comprehensive research report, it’s free for active Edge members .
