We determine the current worth of Bruker using both absolute as well as relative valuation methodologies to arrive at its intrinsic value. In general, an absolute valuation paradigm, as applied to this company, attempts to find the value of Bruker based exclusively on its fundamental and basic technical indicators. By analyzing Bruker's financials, quarterly and monthly indicators, and related drivers such as dividends, operating cash flow, and various types of growth rates, we attempt to find the most accurate representation of Bruker's intrinsic value. In some cases, mostly for established, large-cap companies, we also incorporate more traditional valuation methods such as dividend discount, discounted cash flow, or asset-based models. As compared to an absolute model, our relative valuation model uses a comparative analysis of Bruker. We calculate exposure to Bruker's market risk, different technical and fundamental indicators, relevant financial multiples and ratios, and then comparing them to Bruker's related companies.

Downside deviation is down to 1.59. It may connote a possible volatility fall. Bruker has relatively low volatility with skewness of -0.06 and kurtosis of -0.52. However, we advise all investors to independently investigate Bruker to ensure all accessible information is consistent with the expectations about its upside potential and future expected returns.

Our Final Takeaway

While other companies under the medical devices industry are still a bit expensive, Bruker may offer a potential longer-term growth to retail investors. To conclude, as of the 16th of February 2021, we believe Bruker is currently overvalued. It barely shadows the market and projects very low probability of bankruptcy in the next two years. However, our final 30 days buy-hold-sell recommendation on the enterprise is Strong Buy.
