GROWTH ASSESSMENT

STRENGTHS

It out-grows 76% of companies worldwide.

Revenue is set to grow 19%/yr over the next 3 years, ahead of most of the market.9/10

After shrinking over the last 3 years, revenue is set to grow 19%/yr from here.

The runway holds up: revenue is set to grow 10%/yr over five years.7/10

WATCH

Earnings are set to grow faster than sales (EPS about 39%/yr vs revenue 19%/yr), so margins should widen. One year dips: EPS falls 35% in year 2.

WEAKNESSES

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

BOTTOM LINE

Hyper Compounder

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 (+31% over three years and +22% over five), roughly average for the market.

Returns sit at the market level over the past month (-7%).

WEAKNESSES

It's down 19% over the past year, now 37% below its 52-week high. That is lagging the market.

The stock is underperforming over three months (-9%) and so far this year (-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 one-year trend is weak.
