3 Great Undervalued Stocks To Own In October 2026

Simply Wall St · 2d ago

When a major crypto exchange reports a multibillion dollar hack and scrambles to freeze assets and restore confidence, it underlines how fragile some corners of the market can be. Capital still needs a home. That often pushes attention back toward companies with resilient cash generation and cleaner balance sheets that price screens flag as overlooked. This article highlights three such high quality value stocks that our process currently favors.

These three ideas are only a sample, since the full screen surfaced 26 more high quality companies with equally compelling narratives that are not covered below. To go straight to the source, analyze and identify your own highest conviction candidates directly in the High Quality Undervalued Stocks screener.

Broadcom (AVGO)

Broadcom is a heavyweight in the High Quality Undervalued Stocks screener because its cash-rich chip and software franchises are tightly linked to AI data centers. This gives the thesis a clear earnings engine rather than just a headline AI story.

Broadcom generates roughly US$59.4b from Semiconductor Solutions and about US$29.7b from Infrastructure Software, pairing AI data center hardware with VMware-based software cash flows, and the group is valued at around US$1.65t in market cap.

"Broadcom is generating substantial free cash flow, expanding its custom silicon business, strengthening its position in networking, and integrating software assets that further diversify earnings."

A key risk is what happens if a single assumption about future AI infrastructure demand or customer financing costs shifts more than current expectations allow.

If that single AI demand swing is what worries you most, read the full narrative for Broadcom to see how Broadcom's cash engine and risk profile really line up.

Vita Coco Company (COCO)

Vita Coco Company fits the screener theme through its coconut water and plant-based dairy drinks that generate cash and support a tidy balance sheet. The current setup offers investors a branded beverage exposure that is still connected to everyday staple spending.

"Continued shift of coconut water from niche to everyday hydration, supported by U.S. retail dollar growth of roughly 29% to 31% in 2026 year to date and Vita Coco Coconut Water growing at similar or higher rates, could support higher volume throughput and category pricing that flow into net sales and earnings."

The trajectory of Vita Coco’s earnings power depends heavily on how one less visible pressure in its cost base develops over the next few years.

The Vita Coco Company develops, manufactures, markets, and distributes coconut-based drinks and plant-based dairy alternatives that align with the screener’s cash flow plus balance sheet theme. It generates about US$621.7 million from the Americas and about US$145.9 million internationally, with a market value near US$3.2 billion.

That hidden cost thread is exactly where the story gets interesting, and the full narrative for Vita Coco Company explains how it could affect the future trajectory of Vita Coco Company’s earnings.

Oracle (ORCL)

Oracle plugs into the High Quality Undervalued Stocks theme through its cloud subscriptions, where recurring contracts and high-margin databases convert into robust cash generation. This supports a sizeable balance sheet, while the market still treats the business as a slower-moving legacy software vendor.

Oracle runs a broad IT platform. Most of its roughly US$69.8b in annual revenue comes from cloud and software at about US$62.8b, with smaller contributions from hardware of roughly US$3.2b and services of about US$5.8b. The company is valued near US$423.1b in market cap.

"The foundation of Oracle’s AI narrative rests on its Gen2 AI infrastructure and the validation it received from the premier generative AI powerhouse, OpenAI."

The key issue from here is how one capital-intensive piece of that AI buildout affects future cash flow and operating margins.

That capital swing is exactly where Oracle’s story could accelerate, and the full narrative for Oracle unpacks how AI buildout, contracts, and cash generation might interact next.
