Summary

  • Overall, and from a short-term perspective, the company presents an interesting fundamental situation.

Strengths

  • The company's attractive earnings multiples are brought to light by a P/E ratio at 9.66 for the current year.
  • The company is one of the most undervalued, with an "enterprise value to sales" ratio at 0.25 for the 2024 fiscal year.
  • There is high visibility into the group's activities for the coming years. Outlooks on future revenues from analysts covering the equity remain similar. Such hardly dispersed estimates support highly predictable sales for the current and upcoming fiscal years.

Weaknesses

  • According to forecast, a sluggish sales growth is expected for the next fiscal years.
  • As a percentage of sales and without taking into account depreciation and amortization, the company has relatively low margins.
  • Low profitability weakens the company.
  • For the last twelve months, the trend in sales revisions has been clearly going down, which emphasizes downgraded expectations from the analysts.
  • Revenue estimates are regularly revised downwards for the current and coming years.
  • For the last 12 months, analysts have been regularly downgrading their EPS expectations. Analysts predict worse results for the company against their predictions a year ago.
  • For the last twelve months, the analysts covering the company have given a bearish overview of EPS estimates, resulting in frequent downward revisions.
  • The three month average target prices set by analysts do not offer high potential in comparison with the current prices.
  • The average consensus view of analysts covering the stock has deteriorated over the past four months.
  • Over the past twelve months, analysts' opinions have been revised negatively.
  • The price targets of various analysts who make up the consensus differ significantly. This reflects different assessments and/or a difficulty in valuing the company.
  • The company's earnings releases usually do not meet expectations.
