Summary

  • Overall, the company has poor fundamentals for a medium to long-term investment strategy.
  • The company presents an interesting fundamental situation from a short-term investment perspective.

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.
  • This company will be of major interest to investors in search of a high dividend stock.
  • For the last few months, EPS revisions have remained quite promising. Analysts now anticipate higher profitability levels than before.
  • 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.
  • Analysts' price targets are all relatively close, reflecting good visibility on the company's valuation.

Weaknesses

  • According to Standard & Poor's' forecast, revenue growth prospects are expected to be very low for the next fiscal years.
  • The potential for earnings per share (EPS) growth in the coming years appears limited according to current analyst estimates.
  • The company is in a hindered financial situation with significant debt and rather low EBITDA levels.
  • With a 2024 P/E ratio at 24.14 times the estimated earnings, the company operates at rather significant levels of earnings multiples.
  • The company's "enterprise value to sales" ratio is among the highest in the world.
  • For the last twelve months, sales expectations have been significantly downgraded, which means that less important sales volumes are expected for the current fiscal year over the previous period.
  • 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.
  • Over the past twelve months, analysts' consensus has been significantly revised downwards.
