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

WATCH

Earnings are set to grow in step with sales (EPS about 16%/yr vs revenue 19%/yr). One year dips: EPS falls 50% next year.

WEAKNESSES

Revenue held flat over the last 3 years, behind 70% of companies worldwide.3/10

BOTTOM LINE

Reaccelerating Grower

A top-tier 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 (+15% over three years and +40% over five), roughly average for the market.

Returns sit at the market level over the past month (-5%).

WEAKNESSES

It's down 22% over the past year, now 31% below its 52-week high. That is lagging the market.

The stock is underperforming over three months (-18%) and so far this year (-21%).

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 one-year trend is weak.
