GROWTH ASSESSMENT

STRENGTHS

None flagged.

WATCH

Revenue is set to grow 2%/yr over the next 3 years, a little behind the market.4/10

After shrinking over the last 3 years, revenue is set to grow 2%/yr from here.

WEAKNESSES

Growth is the weak spot here, trailing 83% of companies worldwide.

Revenue fell 16%/yr over the last 3 years, behind 90% of companies worldwide.1/10

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

The company is loss-making, so its revenue growth is not backed by profit yet.

BOTTOM LINE

Stalled Business

Growth is a weak point here: a business that's turning around. The one thing to watch: the company is not profitable yet.

MOMENTUM ASSESSMENT

STRENGTHS

Strong recent results. The stock is outperforming over three months (+10%) and so far this year (+44%).

WATCH

It's up 35% over the past year, but 27% below its 52-week high. That is a touch ahead of the market.

Returns sit at the market level over the past month (-6%).

WEAKNESSES

Weak long-term results. It has been a disappointing long-term hold (-21% over three years and -13% over five), behind 70% 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.
