According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, GB:IGG is a Outperform.

The overall stock score of 71 reflects a solid financial foundation and attractive valuation, offset by neutral technical indicators. The company’s strong profitability and stable balance sheet are significant strengths, while the recent decline in revenue and cash flow growth rates are areas of concern. The valuation is favorable, with a low P/E ratio and high dividend yield, enhancing the stock’s appeal.
