May. 03	Transcript : Proto Labs, Inc., Q1 2024 Earnings Call, May 03, 2024

Strengths

For the last twelve months, analysts have been gradually revising upwards their EPS forecast for the upcoming fiscal year.
The difference between current prices and the average target price is rather important and implies a significant appreciation potential for the stock.
Consensus analysts have strongly revised their opinion of the company over the past 12 months.
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

With relatively low growth outlooks, the group is not among those with the highest revenue growth potential.
The company does not generate enough profits, which is an alarming weak point.
The company's valuation in terms of earnings multiples is rather high. Indeed, the firm is getting paid 39.48 times its estimated earnings per share for the ongoing year.
