Summary

From a short-term investment perspective, the company presents a deteriorated fundamental configuration.

Strengths

Analysts expect a sharply increasing business volume for the group, with high growth rates in the coming years.
The company's earnings per share (EPS) are expected to grow significantly over the next few years according to the consensus of analysts covering the stock.
The company's EBITDA/Sales ratio is relatively high and results in high margins before depreciation, amortization and taxes.
The equity is one of the most attractive in the market with regard to earnings multiple-based valuation.
Over the past year, analysts have regularly revised upwards their sales forecast for the company.
Upward revisions of sales forecast reflect a renewed optimism among the analysts covering the stock.

Weaknesses

The company is not the most generous with respect to shareholders' compensation.

For the last four months, EPS estimates made by Standard & Poor's analysts have been revised downwards.
The overall consensus opinion of analysts has deteriorated sharply over the past four months.
Over the past twelve months, analysts' opinions have been revised negatively.
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 price targets of various analysts who make up the consensus differ significantly. This reflects different assessments and/or a difficulty in valuing the company.
