Summary

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


Strengths

● The current area is a good opportunity for investors interested in buying the stock in a mid or long-term perspective. Indeed, the share is moving closer to its lower bound at EUR 55.96 EUR in weekly data.

● Margins returned by the company are among the highest on the stock exchange list. Its core activity clears big profits.

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

● 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 company is one of the best yield companies with high dividend expectations.


Weaknesses

● The company's enterprise value to sales, at 3.5 times its current sales, is high.

● With a 2016 P/E ratio at 30.14 times the estimated earnings, the company operates at rather significant levels of earnings multiples.

● The sales outlook for the group was lowered in the last twelve months. This change in forecast points out a decline in activity as well as pessimistic analyses of the company.

● For the last few months, analysts have been revising downwards their earnings forecast.

● The technical configuration over the long term remains negative on the weekly chart below the resistance level at 65.48 EUR
