GROWTH ASSESSMENT

STRENGTHS

None flagged.

WATCH

Earnings are set to grow faster than sales (EPS about 19%/yr vs revenue -0.8%/yr), so margins should widen. One year dips: EPS falls 2% next year.

WEAKNESSES

Growth is the weak spot here, trailing 93% of companies worldwide.

Revenue fell 0.7%/yr over the last 3 years, behind 70% of companies worldwide.3/10

Revenue is set to shrink 0.8%/yr over the next 3 years, behind most of the market.2/10

Revenue fell 0.7%/yr over the last 3 years and is set to keep shrinking around 0.8%/yr.

Over five years revenue is set to hold flat, behind 90% of companies worldwide.1/10

BOTTOM LINE

Stalled Business

Growth is a weak point here: a business that is still shrinking. The one thing to watch: revenue has shrunk over the past 3 years.

MOMENTUM ASSESSMENT

STRENGTHS

Strong recent results. The stock is outperforming over the past month (+8%) and over three months (+4%).

WATCH

Average long-term results. Multi-year returns are middling (+42% over three years and +47% over five), roughly average for the market.

It's up 12% over the past year, but 19% below its 52-week high. That is a touch ahead of the market.

Returns sit at the market level so far this year (+11%).

WEAKNESSES

None flagged.

BOTTOM LINE

Fresh Momentum

Short-term returns are strong but the long track record is thin. Momentum is building — confirmation from longer horizons would strengthen the case.
