As part of our ongoing series here at The Acquirer’s Multiple, each week we focus on one of the stocks from our Stock Screeners, and why it’s a ‘buy’ based on key fundamentals.

One of the cheapest stocks in our Stock Screeners is:

Alphabet Inc (GOOGL)

Alphabet is a holding company. Internet media giant Google is a wholly owned subsidiary. Google generates 99% of Alphabet revenue, of which more than 85% is from online ads. Google’s other revenue is from sales of apps and content on Google Play and YouTube, as well as cloud service fees and other licensing revenue. Sales of hardware such as Chromebooks, the Pixel smartphone, and smart home products, which include Nest and Google Home, also contribute to other revenue. Alphabet’s moonshot investments are in its other bets segment, where it bets on technology to enhance health (Verily), provide faster internet access (Google Fiber), enable self-driving cars (Waymo), and more.

A quick look at the share price history (below) over the past twelve months shows that the price is up 37.06%. Here’s why the company is undervalued.

One Comment on “Why Alphabet Inc Stock Is A Buy? Acquirer’s Multiple Stock Screener Analysis”

  1. Googl pays no dividend.
    2024 ts 4th yr of the most dependable cycle.
    2024 is presidential election year. Huge increase in PAID political ads. GOOGL main biz is selling ads.

    Other Bets – expect that area to greatly reduce losses. Maybe spin offs ? With shares to existing shareholders??
