ASX stocks undervalued by up to 30% amid market caution

Duratec, an Australian infrastructure services provider, is trading at A$2.46, approximately 30.4% below its estimated fair value of A$4.80 based on cash flows. The company delivers assessment, protection and refurbishment services for steel and concrete infrastructure across defence, energy, buildings and mining sectors. With a market capitalisation of A$619.58 million, Duratec generates revenue across four segments: Defence (A$166.12 million), Mining & Industrial (A$121.91 million), Buildings & Facades (A$121.01 million), and Energy (A$71.63 million). The analysis comes as the Australian market faces headwinds from rising US bond yields and price pressures, prompting investors to seek undervalued opportunities. A broader screening identified 40 ASX stocks potentially trading below their intrinsic values based on discounted cash flow analysis.
