Rating:67Neutral

165.00 p
▲(1.54% Upside)
Action:Reiterated
Date:08/26/26
The score is primarily driven by improving financial momentum and strong cash flow recovery, tempered by historically volatile profitability and a leveraged balance sheet. Technicals are supportive with the price above key moving averages and positive MACD, while valuation (moderate P/E and a ~2.3% yield) and positive corporate developments provide additional support.
Positive Factors
Revenue and profit recovery
The rebound shows renewed demand and operating recovery after a weak 2023. Sustained revenue growth across two years, alongside materially higher profit, provides a stronger base for future earnings if sector activity remains healthy.
Negative Factors
Elevated leverage
High leverage reduces financial flexibility and increases sensitivity to weaker trading, refinancing needs and interest costs. Although equity has recovered from negative levels in 2020, the capital structure remains a constraint on investment and resilience.
