Summary

  • 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.
  • The group's activity appears highly profitable thanks to its outperforming net margins.
  • Its low valuation, with P/E ratio at 7.24 and 6.6 for the ongoing fiscal year and 2025 respectively, makes the stock pretty attractive with regard to earnings multiples.
  • Given the positive cash flows generated by its business, the company's valuation level is an asset.
  • This company will be of major interest to investors in search of a high dividend stock.
  • 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.
  • Predictions on business development from analysts polled by Standard & Poor's are tight. This results from either a good visibility into core activities or accurate earnings releases.
  • 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.
  • The group shows a rather high level of debt in proportion to its EBITDA.
  • The average consensus view of analysts covering the stock has deteriorated over the past four months.
  • 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.
