Summary

The company has strong fundamentals. More than 70% of companies have a lower mix of growth, profitability, debt and visibility.
Overall, and from a short-term perspective, the company presents an interesting fundamental situation.

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.
Thanks to a sound financial situation, the firm has significant leeway for investment.
The average price target of analysts who are interested in the stock has been strongly revised upwards over the last four 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.
Analysts' price targets are all relatively close, reflecting good visibility on the company's valuation.
The group usually releases upbeat results with huge surprise rates.

Weaknesses

The company appears highly valued given the size of its balance sheet.
The company is not the most generous with respect to shareholders' compensation.
The overall consensus opinion of analysts has deteriorated sharply over the past four months.
