Summary

The company has strong fundamentals. More than 70% of companies have a lower mix of growth, profitability, debt and visibility.
From a short-term investment perspective, the company presents a deteriorated fundamental configuration.

Strengths

The company's profit outlook over the next few years is a strong asset.
The company shows low valuation levels, with an enterprise value at 0.35 times its sales.
The company appears to be poorly valued given its net asset value.
Over the last twelve months, the sales forecast has been frequently revised upwards.
For the past year, analysts covering the stock have been revising their EPS expectations upwards in a significant manner.
Analysts covering this company mostly recommend stock overweighting or purchase.
The difference between current prices and the average target price is rather important and implies a significant appreciation potential for the stock.
Consensus analysts have strongly revised their opinion of the company over the past 12 months.

Weaknesses

As a percentage of sales and without taking into account depreciation and amortization, the company has relatively low margins.
Low profitability weakens the company.
The company's valuation in terms of earnings multiples is rather high. Indeed, the firm is getting paid 44.64 times its estimated earnings per share for the ongoing year.
The company is not the most generous with respect to shareholders' compensation.
Revenue estimates are regularly revised downwards for the current and coming years.
For the last four months, earnings estimated by analysts have been revised downwards with respect to the next two years.
Sales estimates for the next fiscal years vary from one analyst to another. This clearly highlights a lack of visibility into the company's future activity.
The group usually releases earnings worse than estimated.
