What's the opportunity in LiveRamp Holdings?

According to my valuation model, LiveRamp Holdings seems to be fairly priced at around 9.13% above my intrinsic value, which means if you buy LiveRamp Holdings today, you’d be paying a relatively fair price for it. And if you believe the company’s true value is $45.38, then there isn’t really any room for the share price grow beyond what it’s currently trading. Although, there may be an opportunity to buy in the future. This is because LiveRamp Holdings’s beta (a measure of share price volatility) is high, meaning its price movements will be exaggerated relative to the rest of the market. If the market is bearish, the company’s shares will likely fall by more than the rest of the market, providing a prime buying opportunity.

Are you a shareholder? RAMP’s optimistic future growth appears to have been factored into the current share price, with shares trading around its fair value.
