The market value of Meta Financial Group is measured differently than its book value, which is the value of Meta that is recorded on the company's balance sheet. Investors also form their own opinion of Meta Financial's value that differs from its market value or its book value, called intrinsic value, which is Meta Financial's true underlying value. Investors use various methods to calculate intrinsic value and buy a stock when its market value falls below its intrinsic value. Because Meta Financial's market value can be influenced by many factors that don't directly affect Meta Financial's underlying business (such as a pandemic or basic market pessimism), market value can vary widely from intrinsic value.
