GROWTH ASSESSMENT

STRENGTHS

None flagged.

WATCH

Revenue grew 2%/yr over the last 3 years and is set to keep growing around 3%/yr.

Earnings are set to grow faster than sales (EPS about 22%/yr vs revenue 3%/yr), so margins should widen. One year dips: EPS falls 53% next year.

WEAKNESSES

Growth is the weak spot here, trailing 89% of companies worldwide.

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

Over five years revenue is set to shrink 15%/yr, behind 90% of companies worldwide.1/10

BOTTOM LINE

Stalled Business

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

MOMENTUM ASSESSMENT

STRENGTHS

None flagged.

WATCH

It's down 5% over the past year, now 16% below its 52-week high. That is right in line with the market.

WEAKNESSES

Weak long-term results. It has been a disappointing long-term hold (+20% over three years and -16% over five), behind 60% of the market.

The stock is underperforming over the past month (-7%), over three months (-14%) and so far this year (-13%).

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.
