GROWTH ASSESSMENT

STRENGTHS

None flagged.

WATCH

Revenue grew 2%/yr over the last 3 years and is set to keep growing around 1%/yr.

Earnings are set to grow faster than sales (EPS about 19%/yr vs revenue 1%/yr), so margins should widen. One year dips: EPS falls 48% next year.

WEAKNESSES

Growth is the weak spot here, trailing 88% of companies worldwide.

Revenue is set to grow 1%/yr over the next 3 years, behind most of the market.2/10

Over five years revenue is set to shrink 2%/yr, behind 90% of companies worldwide.1/10

BOTTOM LINE

Stalled Business

Growth is a weak point here. The one thing to watch: forward revenue growth trails the market.

MOMENTUM ASSESSMENT

STRENGTHS

Strong recent results. The stock is outperforming over three months (+3%).

WATCH

Average long-term results. Multi-year returns are middling (+43% over three years and +15% over five), roughly average for the market.

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

WEAKNESSES

It's down 26% over the past year, now 37% below its 52-week high. That is lagging the market.

The stock is underperforming so far this year (-28%).

BOTTOM LINE

Weak Tape

Returns across short and long horizons rank poorly versus the market. Momentum offers no support here; the case has to come from other factors. The one thing to watch: the one-year trend is weak.
