GROWTH ASSESSMENT

STRENGTHS

Revenue is set to grow 12%/yr over the next 3 years, ahead of most of the market.7/10

After shrinking over the last 3 years, revenue is set to grow 12%/yr from here.

The runway holds up: revenue is set to grow 13%/yr over five years.8/10

WATCH

A mid-pack grower, ahead of 65% of companies worldwide.

Earnings are set to grow faster than sales (EPS about 77%/yr vs revenue 12%/yr), so margins should widen. One year dips: EPS falls 71% next year.

WEAKNESSES

Revenue fell 1%/yr over the last 3 years, behind 80% of companies worldwide.2/10

BOTTOM LINE

Reaccelerating Grower

A middle-of-the-pack grower that's turning around. The one thing to watch: revenue has shrunk over the past 3 years.

MOMENTUM ASSESSMENT

STRENGTHS

None flagged.

WATCH

Average long-term results. Multi-year returns are middling (+21% over three years and +51% over five), roughly average for the market.

It's up 53% over the past year, but 43% below its 52-week high. That is a touch ahead of the market.

Returns sit at the market level so far this year (+6%).

WEAKNESSES

The stock is underperforming over the past month (-9%) and over three months (-20%).

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 stock is underperforming over the past month and over three months.
