Summary

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

Strengths

Its core activity has a significant growth potential and sales are expected to surge, according to Standard & Poor's' forecast. Indeed, those may increase by 53% by 2026.
The company's profit outlook over the next few years is a strong asset.
The stock, which is currently worth 2024 to 0.54 times its sales, is clearly overvalued in comparison with peers.
Analysts covering this company mostly recommend stock overweighting or purchase.
The difference between current prices and the average target price is rather important and implies a significant appreciation potential for the stock.

Weaknesses

As a percentage of sales and without taking into account depreciation and amortization, the company has relatively low margins.
The company does not generate enough profits, which is an alarming weak point.
For the last four months, EPS estimates made by Standard & Poor's analysts have been revised downwards.
Prospects from analysts covering the stock are not consistent. Such dispersed sales estimates confirm the poor visibility into the group's activity.
Financial statements have repeatedly disappointed market stakeholders. Most often, they were below expectations.
