Strengths

● Historically, the company has been releasing figures that are above expectations.

● The company has attractive valuation levels with a low EV/sales ratio compared with its peers.


Weaknesses

● The stock is close to a major daily resistance at USD 137.08, which should be gotten rid of so as to gain new appreciation potential.

● According to Thomson-Reuters' forecast, revenue growth prospects are expected to be very low for the next fiscal years.

● Sales estimates for the next fiscal years vary from one analyst to another. This clearly highlights a lack of visibility into the company's future activity.

● For the last four months, EPS estimates made by Thomson-Reuters analysts have been revised downwards.

● For the last 12 months, analysts have been regularly downgrading their EPS expectations. Analysts predict worse results for the company against their predictions a year ago.
