GROWTH ASSESSMENT

STRENGTHS

It out-grows 79% of companies worldwide.

Revenue is set to grow 23%/yr over the next 3 years, ahead of most of the market.8/10

After shrinking over the last 3 years, revenue is set to grow 23%/yr from here.

The runway holds up: revenue is set to grow 14%/yr over five years.8/10

Earnings are set to grow faster than sales (EPS about 31%/yr vs revenue 23%/yr), so margins should widen.

WATCH

None flagged.

WEAKNESSES

Revenue fell 3%/yr over the last 3 years, behind 80% of companies worldwide.2/10

BOTTOM LINE

Margin Expander

A top-tier grower that's turning around. 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 (+19%) and so far this year (+64%).

WATCH

Average long-term results. Multi-year returns are middling (+118% over three years and -46% over five), roughly average for the market.

It's up 34% over the past year, but 25% below its 52-week high. That is a touch ahead of the market.

Returns sit at the market level over three months (-5%).

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.
