Summary

The company has strong fundamentals. More than 70% of companies have a lower mix of growth, profitability, debt and visibility.

Strengths

Growth is a substantial asset for the company, as anticipated by dedicated analysts. Within the next three years, growth is estimated to reach 48% by 2025.
Thanks to a sound financial situation, the firm has significant leeway for investment.
Over the past four months, analysts' average price target has been revised upwards significantly.
Predictions on business development from analysts polled by Standard & Poor's are tight. This results from either a good visibility into core activities or accurate earnings releases.

Weaknesses

With an expected P/E ratio at 71.95 and 55.06 respectively for both the current and next fiscal years, the company operates with high earnings multiples.
Based on current prices, the company has particularly high valuation levels.
The company appears highly valued given the size of its balance sheet.
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 12 months, analysts have been regularly downgrading their EPS expectations. Analysts predict worse results for the company against their predictions a year ago.
The overall consensus opinion of analysts has deteriorated sharply over the past four months.
Over the past twelve months, analysts' consensus has been significantly revised downwards.
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.
