Summary

The company has strong fundamentals. More than 70% of companies have a lower mix of growth, profitability, debt and visibility.
The company's Refinitiv ESG score, based on a ranking of the company relative to its industry, comes out particularly well.

Strengths

The equity is one of the most attractive in the market with regard to earnings multiple-based valuation.
The stock, which is currently worth 2024 to 0.18 times its sales, is clearly overvalued in comparison with peers.
Given the positive cash flows generated by its business, the company's valuation level is an asset.
For the past year, analysts covering the stock have been revising their EPS expectations upwards in a significant manner.
The difference between current prices and the average target price is rather important and implies a significant appreciation potential for the stock.
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 company's profitability before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization characterizes fragile margins.
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.
The company's sales previsions for the coming years have been revised downwards, which foreshadows another slowdown in business.
For the last few months, analysts have been revising downwards their earnings forecast.
Over the past twelve months, analysts' opinions have been revised negatively.
