Summary

  • On the basis of various fundamental qualitative criteria, the company appears to be particularly poorly ranked from a medium and long-term investment perspective.
  • According to Refinitiv, the company's ESG score for its industry is good.

Strengths

  • Before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, the company's margins are particularly high.
  • Upward revisions of sales forecast reflect a renewed optimism among the analysts covering the stock.
  • For several months, analysts have been revising their EPS estimates roughly upwards.
  • Analysts covering this company mostly recommend stock overweighting or purchase.
  • The difference between current prices and the average target price is rather important and implies a significant appreciation potential for the stock.
  • Over the past four months, analysts' average price target has been revised upwards significantly.
  • Analyst opinion has improved significantly over the past four months.
  • Consensus analysts have strongly revised their opinion of the company over the past 12 months.

Weaknesses

  • According to forecast, a sluggish sales growth is expected for the next fiscal years.
  • With an expected P/E ratio at 113.27 and 50.48 respectively for both the current and next fiscal years, the company operates with high earnings multiples.
  • The valuation of the company is particularly high given the cash flows generated by its activity.
  • The firm pays small or no dividend to shareholders. For that reason, it is not a yield company.
  • 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.
