Summary

  • The company presents an interesting fundamental situation from a short-term investment perspective.

Strengths

  • The company shows low valuation levels, with an enterprise value at 0.64 times its sales.
  • For the last 4 months, the company has been enjoying highly positive EPS revisions, which were frequently and significantly raised.
  • The average price target of analysts who are interested in the stock has been strongly revised upwards over the last four months.
  • Analyst opinion has improved significantly over the past four months.

Weaknesses

  • According to Standard & Poor's' forecast, revenue growth prospects are expected to be very low for the next fiscal years.
  • The company's profitability before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization characterizes fragile margins.
  • The company does not generate enough profits, which is an alarming weak point.
  • With a 2024 P/E ratio at 25.27 times the estimated earnings, the company operates at rather significant levels of earnings multiples.
  • For the last twelve months, the trend in sales revisions has been clearly going down, which emphasizes downgraded expectations from the analysts.
  • Prospects from analysts covering the stock are not consistent. Such dispersed sales estimates confirm the poor visibility into the group's activity.
  • The price targets of analysts who cover the stock differ significantly. This implies difficulties in evaluating the company and its business.
  • Financial statements have repeatedly disappointed market stakeholders. Most often, they were below expectations.
