Summary

The company's Refinitiv ESG score, based on a ranking of the company relative to its industry, comes out particularly well.

Strengths

The company's EBITDA/Sales ratio is relatively high and results in high margins before depreciation, amortization and taxes.
Margins returned by the company are among the highest on the stock exchange list. Its core activity clears big profits.
The equity is one of the most attractive in the market with regard to earnings multiple-based valuation.
Given the positive cash flows generated by its business, the company's valuation level is an asset.
The company is one of the best yield companies with high dividend expectations.
Analysts have a positive opinion on this stock. Average consensus recommends overweighting or purchasing the stock.
The difference between current prices and the average target price is rather important and implies a significant appreciation potential for the stock.
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

According to Standard & Poor's' forecast, revenue growth prospects are expected to be very low for the next fiscal years.
The company's earnings growth outlook lacks momentum and is a weakness.
The group shows a rather high level of debt in proportion to its EBITDA.
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.
