THE PRICE TAG
MARKET VALUE / ANNUAL PROFIT
4.2×

The market pays 4.2× for every dollar of annual profit — cheap, which is either an opportunity or a warning.

Analysts' average target sits 17% above today's price.

THE FIVE-YEAR JOURNEY
A long and steep decline.

An investor who bought at the very peak is down 65% today. The business is the same; what changed most is the price — and the expectations — the market pins on it.

THE BRIGHT SIDE · 1/2
A fat but narrowing margin

The net profit margin is 29% — still a thick cushion, though costs have been eating into it lately.

2
THE BRIGHT SIDE · 2/2
Sales keep climbing

Over the last 4 years, sales grew about 14% a year on average.

1
THE RISKS · 1/1
The stock has lost its spark

Since the drop from its peak, buyer appetite hasn’t come back.

FINALE · THE GRADE
grade pending
