GROWTH ASSESSMENT

STRENGTHS

None flagged.

WATCH

Revenue is set to grow 4%/yr over the next 3 years, a little behind the market.4/10

Revenue grew 4%/yr over the last 3 years and is set to keep growing around 4%/yr.

Earnings are set to grow in step with sales (EPS about 7%/yr vs revenue 4%/yr). One year dips: EPS falls 3% next year.

WEAKNESSES

Growth is the weak spot here, trailing 72% of companies worldwide.

Over five years revenue is set to grow 3%/yr, behind 70% of companies worldwide.3/10

BOTTOM LINE

Steady Grower

Growth is a weak point here. The one thing to watch: the five-year outlook is thin.

MOMENTUM ASSESSMENT

STRENGTHS

Strong recent results. The stock is outperforming over the past month (-2%).

WATCH

Returns sit at the market level over three months (-1%).

WEAKNESSES

Weak long-term results. It has been a disappointing long-term hold (-8.1% over three years and -33% over five), behind 80% of the market.

It's down 16% over the past year, now 35% below its 52-week high. That is lagging the market.

The stock is underperforming so far this year (-10%).

BOTTOM LINE

Falling Knife

Returns rank poorly over both the short and long run, and the price is still falling. Momentum is firmly negative — catching this is a bet against the tape, not with it. Wait for a base to form. The one thing to watch: the multi-year record is weak.
