GROWTH ASSESSMENT

STRENGTHS

Revenue grew 15%/yr over the last 3 years, ahead of 70% of companies worldwide.8/10

WATCH

Revenue grew 15%/yr over the last 3 years; forecasts see it cooling to 0%/yr.

WEAKNESSES

Growth is the weak spot here, trailing 100% of companies worldwide.

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 is slowing. The one thing to watch: the company is not profitable yet.

STRENGTHS

Strong long-term results. Long-term holders have seen +72% over three years and +92% over five, ahead of 60% of the market.

WATCH

It's down 4% over the past year, now 12% below its 52-week high. That is a touch ahead of the market.

WEAKNESSES

Dependable multi-year returns with a calmer near-term tape. A reliable long-term trend rather than a short-term breakout.
