Summary

  • Overall, the company has poor fundamentals for a medium to long-term investment strategy.
  • 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

  • The company's profit outlook over the next few years is a strong asset.
  • The company's EBITDA/Sales ratio is relatively high and results in high margins before depreciation, amortization and taxes.
  • The company's share price in relation to its net book value makes it look relatively cheap.
  • Analysts remain confident with respect to the group's activity and, more often than not, have revised upwards their earnings per share estimates.
  • Analysts covering this company mostly recommend stock overweighting or purchase.
  • 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.
  • For the last twelve months, sales expectations have been significantly downgraded, which means that less important sales volumes are expected for the current fiscal year over the previous period.
  • For the last 12 months, analysts have been regularly downgrading their EPS expectations. Analysts predict worse results for the company against their predictions a year ago.
  • Prospects from analysts covering the stock are not consistent. Such dispersed sales estimates confirm the poor visibility into the group's activity.
  • Financial statements have repeatedly disappointed market stakeholders. Most often, they were below expectations.
