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

Strengths

Over the past four months, analysts' average price target has been revised upwards significantly.
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.
Historically, the company has been releasing figures that are above expectations.

Weaknesses

The company's profitability before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization characterizes fragile margins.
The company benefits from high valuations in earnings multiples.
In relation to the value of its tangible assets, the company's valuation appears relatively high.
The firm pays small or no dividend to shareholders. For that reason, it is not a yield company.
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.
