Summary

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

Strengths

The earnings growth currently anticipated by analysts for the coming years is particularly strong.
Before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, the company's margins are particularly high.
Margins returned by the company are among the highest on the stock exchange list. Its core activity clears big profits.
Analysts have a positive opinion on this stock. Average consensus recommends overweighting or purchasing the stock.
The difference between current prices and the average target price is rather important and implies a significant appreciation potential for the stock.
There is high visibility into the group's activities for the coming years. Outlooks on future revenues from analysts covering the equity remain similar. Such hardly dispersed estimates support highly predictable sales for the current and upcoming fiscal years.

Weaknesses

With an expected P/E ratio at 31.28 and 25.37 respectively for both the current and next fiscal years, the company operates with high earnings multiples.
Based on current prices, the company has particularly high valuation levels.
The company appears highly valued given the size of its balance sheet.
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.
For the last twelve months, the analysts covering the company have given a bearish overview of EPS estimates, resulting in frequent downward revisions.
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.
