Summary

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

Strengths

Before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, the company's margins are particularly high.
The company is in a robust financial situation considering its net cash and margin position.
The company's attractive earnings multiples are brought to light by a P/E ratio at 12.09 for the current year.
The company is one of the most undervalued, with an "enterprise value to sales" ratio at 0.63 for the 2024 fiscal year.
The company appears to be poorly valued given its net asset value.
Given the positive cash flows generated by its business, the company's valuation level is an asset.
This company will be of major interest to investors in search of a high dividend stock.
Analysts have a positive opinion on this stock. Average consensus recommends overweighting or purchasing the stock.
The difference between current prices and the average target price is rather important and implies a significant appreciation potential for the stock.
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 price targets of various analysts who make up the consensus differ significantly. This reflects different assessments and/or a difficulty in valuing the company.
