Summary

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

Strengths

  • The company's EBITDA/Sales ratio is relatively high and results in high margins before depreciation, amortization and taxes.
  • Analysts have a positive opinion on this stock. Average consensus recommends overweighting or purchasing the stock.
  • Over the past four months, analysts' average price target has been revised upwards significantly.
  • 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.
  • The group usually releases upbeat results with huge surprise rates.

Weaknesses

  • Low profitability weakens the company.
  • The company is in a hindered financial situation with significant debt and rather low EBITDA levels.
  • With an expected P/E ratio at 193.2 and 35.72 respectively for both the current and next fiscal years, the company operates with high earnings multiples.
  • With an enterprise value anticipated at 3.21 times the sales for the current fiscal year, the company turns out to be overvalued.
  • The company appears highly valued given the size of its balance sheet.
  • The firm pays small or no dividend to shareholders. For that reason, it is not a yield company.
  • For the last twelve months, the trend in sales revisions has been clearly going down, which emphasizes downgraded expectations from the analysts.
  • For the past year, analysts have significantly revised downwards their profit estimates.
  • For the last four months, earnings estimated by analysts have been revised downwards with respect to the next two years.
