Summary

● The company has strong fundamentals. More than 70% of companies have a lower mix of growth, profitability, debt and visibility.


Strengths

● The company's EBITDA/Sales ratio is relatively high and results in high margins before depreciation, amortization and taxes.

● The company returns high margins, thereby supporting business profitability.

● Thanks to a sound financial situation, the firm has significant leeway for investment.

● Analysts covering this company mostly recommend stock overweighting or purchase.

● 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.


Weaknesses

● The company's earnings growth outlook lacks momentum and is a weakness.

● The company's valuation in terms of earnings multiples is rather high. Indeed, the firm is getting paid 73.2 times its estimated earnings per share for the ongoing year.

● The company's "enterprise value to sales" ratio is among the highest in the world.

● The company appears highly valued given the size of its balance sheet.

● The company is highly valued 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.

● The overall consensus opinion of analysts has deteriorated sharply over the past four months.

● The price targets of analysts who cover the stock differ significantly. This implies difficulties in evaluating the company and its business.
