Modern value with substance: I have analyzed these 4 AAA stocks for you

🧠 Background

The idea for this article came from the current Saturday episode of Alles auf Aktien (AAA) with Frank Fischer as a guest. He heads Shareholder Value Management AG and is responsible for the Frankfurt UCITS ETF Modern Value, among other things. In the episode, he presented his Modern Value Investing approach with a focus on profitable, high-growth companies that are still reasonably valued.

I found four stocks from this episode particularly exciting: $NOW (+0,84%) , $A1OS (+1,87%) , $MCE (+0%) and $APP (+3,83%) . I took a closer look at these stocks and compiled the latest cash flow figures, market capitalization and a brief assessment for you.

📊 Company overview

ServiceNow (NOW) - Enterprise Software, USA

Operating cash flow (TTM): approx. USD 4.7 billion

Free cash flow: approx. USD 3.85 billion

Market capitalization: around USD 201 bn

Assessment: Cloud platform for digital workflows. Impressive cash flow, established market position, but ambitious valuation

All for One Group (A1OS) - IT consulting, Germany

Operating cash flow: EUR 46.6m

Free cash flow: approx. EUR 42m

Market capitalization: approx. USD 280m

Assessment: Small IT service provider with focus on SAP projects. Solid cash flows, but heavily dependent on the DACH market

CHAPTERS Group (CHG) - investment company, Germany

Operating cash flow: approx. EUR 11.5m

Free cash flow: approx. EUR 7.8m

Market capitalization: approx. USD 1.1 bn

Assessment: Active investor in SMEs and services. Young listed model with high valuation level, but exciting approach

AppLovin (APP) - AdTech, USA

Operating cash flow (TTM): approx. USD 2.5 bn

Free cash flow (Q1 2025): USD 826 million

Market capitalization: approx. USD 120 billion

Assessment: Profitable provider in the mobile ad ecosystem. Very strong cash flow, aggressive growth. Somewhat overheated, but strategically focused

🚀 My takeaways

1. the selection reflects the Modern Value approach well. Cash flow strong, technology driven, but no classic hype stocks.

2. AppLovin and ServiceNow have global scale. The German stocks look like targeted small or mid cap building blocks with defensive substance

3. in terms of valuation, you have to take a closer look at AppLovin and CHAPTERS. High growth, but also a lot of expectation priced in.

❓ Question for the community

Do you already know any of these companies in detail? Do you have ServiceNow, AppLovin, All for One or CHAPTERS in your portfolio or have you already analyzed them? How do you currently rate the risk/return ratio of these stocks?

I also listened to the episode - the fact that it was also about Servicenow and AppLovin somehow passed me by 🧐 Frank Fischer doesn't even have those two in his portfolio at the moment: https://www.shareholdervalue.de/frankfurter-fonds/frankfurter-ucits-etf-modern-value
I actually found Ashtead $AHT, Diploma $DPLM and Interpump $IP worth a second look after the presentations - I've put all three on my watchlist.

Trimming my position in Celestica

I initially bought shares of Celestica $CLS (+3,72%) because I saw it as a clear beneficiary of the AI boom. It felt like an undervalued gem:

· A pristine balance sheet

· Strong fundamentals

· A valuation that simply didn’t reflect its growth potential.

That conviction paid off: my total position was up 235% at the time of selling.

My first purchase was at €20.54 per share. I added twice more, at €48.80 and again at €90.00. I recently trimmed my position, selling part of it at €133.50.

I still believe in the company’s long-term vision. The pipeline of new products, the ramp-up in production, and the explosive growth of hyperscalers all suggest a promising future. However, valuation has run ahead of fundamentals, and that’s where I draw a line. The stock now commands a premium that no longer aligns with the initial reasons I bought in.

Additionally, Celestica still has concentrated exposure to a few large clients, both in terms of revenue and geography — a risk that’s grown too large for the current weight it had in my portfolio.

I’ve decided to keep 75% of my position. The stock remains in a strong bullish trend, and there could be further upside in the short term. But I’m also being cautious. With the potential impact of U.S. tariffs — which may or may not materialize, depending on how serious Trump’s rhetoric turns out to be — I'm choosing to de-risk a little.

I’ve learned from past mistakes with $SMCI (+3,04%) (sold 100% for less than half the price of its peack) and $APP (+3,83%) (keeping 100% of it), where I held onto full positions despite feeling the stocks were clearly overvalued. I could have sold partial positions and added back later at much better prices.

If $CLS (+3,72%) experiences another meaningful pullback, I’ll likely buy back in. For now, the proceeds from this partial sale will remain ready for better opportunities or better entry points. That said, $CLS (+3,72%)
still holds the third-largest position in my portfolio — and for good reason.

Why AppLovin is falling today

$APP (+3,83%)

Source: Investing.com -- Shares of Robinhood (NASDAQ:HOOD) and AppLovin (NASDAQ:APP) were down about 5% in premarket trading on Monday.

The decline followed the S&P Dow Jones Indices' decision to leave the composition of the S&P 500 unchanged in its latest quarterly rebalancing, which was conducted on Friday.

Wall Street analysts often forecast which companies will be added to the index before the announcement. Wendy Soong of Bloomberg Intelligence had listed AppLovin, Robinhood, Cheniere, Veeva Systems and Vertiv as potential additions to the S&P 500.

Inclusion in the benchmark index is becoming increasingly important for companies in an environment heavily influenced by passive investment funds. In contrast, removal from the benchmark index can have a negative impact on share prices.

This is because passive investors are forced to sell their shares and adjust their portfolios to bring them in line with the new composition of the S&P 500.

Is the slowdown global or related to which market?
