Strengths

The company's EBITDA/Sales ratio is relatively high and results in high margins before depreciation, amortization and taxes.
With a P/E ratio at 9.74 for the current year and 8.68 for next year, earnings multiples are highly attractive compared with competitors.
The company is one of the best yield companies with high dividend expectations.
Over the last twelve months, the sales forecast has been frequently revised upwards.
Analysts have consistently raised their revenue expectations for the company, which provides good prospects for the current and next years in terms of revenue growth.
The difference between current prices and the average target price is rather important and implies a significant appreciation potential for the stock.
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 relatively low growth outlooks, the group is not among those with the highest revenue growth potential.
The company's currently anticipated earnings per share (EPS) growth for the next few years is a notable weakness.
The group shows a rather high level of debt in proportion to its EBITDA.
For the last four months, EPS estimates made by Standard & Poor's analysts have been revised downwards.
Over the past twelve months, analysts' consensus has been significantly revised downwards.
Financial statements have repeatedly disappointed market stakeholders. Most often, they were below expectations.
