GROWTH ASSESSMENT

STRENGTHS

Revenue grew 1%/yr over the last 3 years and is set to grow 5%/yr from here.

Earnings are set to grow faster than sales (EPS about 12%/yr vs revenue 5%/yr), so margins should widen.

WATCH

A mid-pack grower, ahead of 35% of companies worldwide.

Revenue is set to grow 5%/yr over the next 3 years, a little behind the market.4/10

Over five years revenue is set to grow 5%/yr, behind 60% of companies worldwide.4/10

WEAKNESSES

Revenue grew 1%/yr over the last 3 years, behind 70% of companies worldwide.3/10

BOTTOM LINE

Margin Expander

A middle-of-the-pack grower that's speeding up. The one thing to watch: the 3-year revenue record is weak.

MOMENTUM ASSESSMENT

STRENGTHS

It's up 44% over the past year, now sitting right at its 52-week high. That is clearly ahead of the market.

Strong recent results. The stock is outperforming over the past month (+1%), over three months (+26%) and so far this year (+28%).

WATCH

None flagged.

WEAKNESSES

Weak long-term results. It has been a disappointing long-term hold (+19% over three years and -17% over five), behind 60% of the market.

BOTTOM LINE

Early Turnaround

A poor multi-year track record but a sharp recent rally. Momentum is turning up, yet the trend is young and unproven — it needs follow-through to confirm rather than fade. The one thing to watch: the multi-year record is weak.
