Summary

From a short-term investment perspective, the company presents a deteriorated fundamental configuration.

Strengths

Growth is a substantial asset for the company, as anticipated by dedicated analysts. Within the next three years, growth is estimated to reach 65% by 2026.
The earnings growth currently anticipated by analysts for the coming years is particularly strong.
Before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, the company's margins are particularly high.
The group's activity appears highly profitable thanks to its outperforming net margins.
Over the past four months, analysts' average price target has been revised upwards significantly.
The group usually releases upbeat results with huge surprise rates.

Weaknesses

The company is in a hindered financial situation with significant debt and rather low EBITDA levels.
The company's valuation in terms of earnings multiples is rather high. Indeed, the firm is getting paid 156.13 times its estimated earnings per share for the ongoing year.
Based on current prices, the company has particularly high valuation levels.
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.
For the last twelve months, the trend in sales revisions has been clearly going down, which emphasizes downgraded expectations from the analysts.
The company's sales previsions for the coming years have been revised downwards, which foreshadows another slowdown in business.
For the past year, analysts have significantly revised downwards their profit estimates.
Most analysts agree on a negative opinion with regard to the stock. Indeed, the average consensus issues recommendations to underperform or sell.
The appreciation potential seems limited due to the average target prices set by the analysts covering the stock.
The price targets of analysts who cover the stock differ significantly. This implies difficulties in evaluating the company and its business.
