Summary

From a short-term investment perspective, the company presents a deteriorated fundamental configuration.
The company has a good ESG score relative to its sector, according to Refinitiv.

Strengths

The group's high margin levels account for strong profits.
The company is in a robust financial situation considering its net cash and margin position.
Over the past year, analysts have regularly revised upwards their sales forecast for the company.

Weaknesses

According to forecast, a sluggish sales growth is expected for the next fiscal years.
The company's valuation in terms of earnings multiples is rather high. Indeed, the firm is getting paid 53.09 times its estimated earnings per share for the ongoing year.
The company's "enterprise value to sales" ratio is among the highest in the world.
In relation to the value of its tangible assets, the company's valuation appears relatively high.
The company is not the most generous with respect to shareholders' compensation.
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.
