On the stock market since 1996, it operates in the world of technology. It has 44,900 employees. Now — the numbers.
The company closed last year at a loss: costs ran above sales. The picture changes only if spending is reined in.
That much dependence is a risk in itself: if this one line weakens, the whole company feels it directly.
Before the clock runs out, either sales must climb sharply or new money must come in. This is the most critical line in the whole picture.
We compared this company with its own sector across five subjects.
A score of 50 means class average.
Clearly below the class average.
A solid grade overall — yet the debt outweighs the cash. The strength here comes from earnings power.
The price looks reasonable next to what the company earns.
There is growth, but not at top-of-the-class tempo.
Clearly below the class average.
Price Momentum: The stock has lagged the market in recent months; investor interest is weak right now.
Business Quality: Profit power and business quality trail similar companies in the sector.
An investor who bought at the very peak is down 99% today. The business is the same; what changed most is the price — and the expectations — the market pins on it.
The average analyst price target is $34.17 — 2,290% above today’s price.
It pays out $0.58 per share each year — regular cash for whoever holds the stock.
A loss of $192.5M against $2.1B in annual sales. And on top of that, sales fell from the year before.
At the current pace of spending, the cash lasts less than a year. After that, the company needs to find new money.
On our five-subject report card, TTEC sits in the middle of the class: some subjects shine, others don’t. The grade moves as the numbers move.
The takeaway: TTEC has solid sales but closed last year at a loss. The road back to profit runs through spending discipline.
