GROWTH ASSESSMENT

STRENGTHS

Earnings are set to grow faster than sales (EPS about 17%/yr vs revenue 6%/yr), so margins should widen.

WATCH

A mid-pack grower, ahead of 41% of companies worldwide.

Revenue is set to grow 6%/yr over the next 3 years, a little behind the market.4/10

Revenue grew 3%/yr over the last 3 years and is set to keep growing around 6%/yr.

WEAKNESSES

Over five years revenue is set to grow 3%/yr, behind 70% of companies worldwide.3/10

BOTTOM LINE

Margin Expander

A middle-of-the-pack grower. The one thing to watch: the five-year outlook is thin.
