Taking Stock of Mobilicom (NasdaqCM:MOB)’s Valuation After Its Recent Share Price Strength

Simply Wall St · 2d ago

Mobilicom (MOB) has quietly turned into one of the stronger performers in defense-tech, with the stock up about 13% over the past day and roughly 21% over the past month.

That jump in the latest share price to $7.975, on top of a hefty year to date share price return, suggests investors are steadily repricing Mobilicom for higher growth and possibly lower perceived risk. Momentum appears to be building rather than fading.

If Mobilicom’s run has you rethinking your defense exposure, this is a good moment to explore other aerospace and security names through aerospace and defense stocks.

With revenue surging yet profits still in the red, and shares trading at a steep discount to analyst targets, the big question now is simple: is Mobilicom still mispriced, or is the market already discounting its next growth leg?

Price to Book of 5,199.8x: Is it justified?

Mobilicom’s latest close at $7.975 lines up with a towering price to book ratio of 5,199.8 times, putting its valuation far above peer levels.

Price to book compares a company’s market value to the net assets on its balance sheet. It is a common yardstick for asset light, high growth tech and communications names where tangible book value can understate future earnings potential.

In this case, however, Mobilicom’s price to book multiple near 5,200 times, versus a peer average of 22.6 times and a broader US Communications industry average of just 2 times, signals that investors are paying a large premium relative to the company’s current asset base.

That premium appears especially stark when set against the SWS DCF model, which pegs fair value at just $0.22 per share. This indicates that the present share price is trading far above the level suggested by this cash flow based framework.

Result: Price to book of 5,199.8x (OVERVALUED)

However, investors still face execution risk around scaling profitable revenue, as well as potential sentiment reversals if defense-tech spending or drone demand softens.

Another View: Cash Flows Paint a Harsher Picture

While the towering price to book ratio already looks stretched, our DCF model is even more cautious, putting fair value at about $0.22 per share, far below today’s $7.98 level. If both assets and cash flows appear rich, it raises the question of what exactly the market is paying up for here.

Look into how the SWS DCF model arrives at its fair value.
