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.
The company has a good ESG score relative to its sector, according to Refinitiv.

Strengths

Over the past twelve months, analysts' opinions have been strongly revised upwards.
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

The potential for earnings per share (EPS) growth in the coming years appears limited according to current analyst estimates.
With an expected P/E ratio at 37.12 and 34 respectively for both the current and next fiscal years, the company operates with high earnings multiples.
The company's enterprise value to sales, at 4.59 times its current sales, is high.
In relation to the value of its tangible assets, the company's valuation appears relatively high.
The valuation of the company is particularly high given the cash flows generated by its activity.
The firm pays small or no dividend to shareholders. For that reason, it is not a yield company.
The average consensus view of analysts covering the stock has deteriorated over the past four months.
