Summary
- The company has strong fundamentals. More than 70% of companies have a lower mix of growth, profitability, debt and visibility.
- From a short-term investment perspective, the company presents a deteriorated fundamental situation
- The company's Refinitiv ESG score, based on a relative ranking of the company within its sector, comes out particularly poor.
Strengths
- Before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, the company's margins are particularly high.
- Margins returned by the company are among the highest on the stock exchange list. Its core activity clears big profits.
- For the last twelve months, analysts have been gradually revising upwards their EPS forecast for the upcoming fiscal year.
- Analysts have a positive opinion on this stock. Average consensus recommends overweighting or purchasing the stock.
- The average target price set by analysts covering the stock is above current prices and offers a tremendous appreciation potential.
Weaknesses
- The company's currently anticipated earnings per share (EPS) growth for the next few years is a notable weakness.
- With an expected P/E ratio at 42.17 and 24.67 respectively for both the current and next fiscal years, the company operates with high earnings multiples.
- For the last twelve months, the trend in sales revisions has been clearly going down, which emphasizes downgraded expectations from the analysts.
- Sales estimates for the next fiscal years vary from one analyst to another. This clearly highlights a lack of visibility into the company's future activity.
- The price targets of analysts who cover the stock differ significantly. This implies difficulties in evaluating the company and its business.
