Summary

  • Overall, and from a short-term perspective, the company presents an interesting fundamental situation.
  • According to Refinitiv, the company's ESG score for its industry is good.

Strengths

  • The opinion of analysts covering the stock has improved over the past four months.

  • 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

  • The company's currently anticipated earnings per share (EPS) growth for the next few years is a notable weakness.
  • One of the major weak points of the company is its financial situation.
  • The valuation of the company is particularly high given the cash flows generated by its activity.
  • 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.
