Summary

From a short-term investment perspective, the company presents a deteriorated fundamental configuration.

Strengths

Before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, the company's margins are particularly high.
The company returns high margins, thereby supporting business profitability.
The company's attractive earnings multiples are brought to light by a P/E ratio at 15.11 for the current year.
The company has a low valuation given the cash flows generated by its activity.
Over the last twelve months, the sales forecast has been frequently revised upwards.
Analysts have a positive opinion on this stock. Average consensus recommends overweighting or purchasing the stock.
The difference between current prices and the average target price is rather important and implies a significant appreciation potential for the stock.
The average price target of analysts who are interested in the stock has been strongly revised upwards over the last four months.
Analyst opinion has improved significantly over the past four months.
Historically, the company has been releasing figures that are above expectations.

Weaknesses

As estimated by analysts, this group is among those businesses with the lowest growth prospects.
The potential for earnings per share (EPS) growth in the coming years appears limited according to current analyst estimates.
For the last four months, the sales outlook for the coming years has been revised downwards. No recovery of the group's activities is yet foreseen.
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 four months, earnings estimated by analysts have been revised downwards with respect to the next two years.
Prospects from analysts covering the stock are not consistent. Such dispersed sales estimates confirm the poor visibility into the group's activity.
