Summary

  • Overall, the company has poor fundamentals for a medium to long-term investment strategy.

Strengths

  • The group's activity appears highly profitable thanks to its outperforming net margins.
  • The equity is one of the most attractive in the market with regard to earnings multiple-based valuation.
