Value traps are stocks that appear cheap based on valuation multiples but may actually be fully valued or expensive when considering enterprise valuation and the cash-based sources of intrinsic value. Valuation multiples can be misleading, and the balance sheet is a critical component of value that is often ignored. Many value traps have low valuation multiples due to large net debt positions, making a low P/E more often indicative of a potential value trap rather than an undervalued stock.
