6 analysts

The primary driver is price structure making higher highs and higher lows. The main limiting factor is high leverage (debt-to-equity 16.80) amplifies downside in a stress scenario. The committee is constructive but not yet at full conviction.

Bull Case
  • P/E of 9.1 is inexpensive for the broad market — Value
  • ROE of 336.8% shows genuine earnings power backing the valuation — Value
  • Dividend yield of 2.7% pays you to wait — Value
Bear Case
  • Price-to-book of 82.7x prices in significant intangible value — Value
  • Debt-to-equity of 16.80 adds balance-sheet risk to the value case — Value
  • Growth rate is decelerating quarter over quarter -- the trend line matters more than the level — Growth
