None flagged.

BOTTOM LINE

Maturing Grower

A middle-of-the-pack grower that is slowing. The one thing to watch: forward revenue growth is only about average.

MOMENTUM ASSESSMENT

STRENGTHS

None flagged.

WATCH

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

WEAKNESSES

Weak long-term results. It has been a disappointing long-term hold (+1.2% over three years and -14% over five), behind 70% of the market.

It's down 15% over the past year, now 25% below its 52-week high. That is a touch behind the market.

The stock is underperforming over three months (-10%) and so far this year (-12%).

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 multi-year record is weak.
