Earnings are set to grow faster than sales (EPS about 11%/yr vs revenue 0.1%/yr), so margins should widen.

Revenue grew 6%/yr over the last 3 years; forecasts see it cooling to 0.1%/yr.

Growth is the weak spot here, trailing 86% of companies worldwide.

Revenue is set to hold flat over the next 3 years, behind most of the market.2/10

Over five years revenue is set to grow 4%/yr, behind 70% of companies worldwide.3/10

Growth is a weak point here: a business that is slowing. The one thing to watch: forward revenue growth trails the market.

Strong long-term results. Long-term holders have seen +92% over three years and +149% over five, ahead of 70% of the market.

It's up 12% over the past year, but 28% below its 52-week high. That is right in line with the market.

Returns sit at the market level over three months (-7%).

The stock is underperforming over the past month (-10%) and so far this year (-13%).

A proven multi-year compounder now in a meaningful pullback well below its 52-week high. This is the classic fork: either a buy-the-dip in an intact uptrend, or the early stage of a trend change. Wait for the short-term slide to stabilise before adding. The one thing to watch: the stock is underperforming over the past month and so far this year.
