Strengths
•The current area is a good opportunity for investors interested in buying the stock in a mid or long-term perspective. Indeed, the share is moving closer to its lower bound at GBp 3075 GBp in weekly data.
•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.
Weaknesses
•One of the major weak points of the company is its financial situation.
•Prospects from analysts covering the stock are not consistent. Such dispersed sales estimates confirm the poor visibility into the group's activity.
•The company's enterprise value to sales, at 3.99 times its current sales, is high.
•The firm pays small or no dividend to shareholders. For that reason, it is not a yield company.
•For the last four months, earnings estimated by analysts have been revised downwards with respect to the next two years.
•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.
•The technical configuration over the long term remains negative on the weekly chart below the resistance level at 3900 GBp
