Top 10 Stock Helical Bar Strong Buy Recommendation



How to read the ranks

For every stock, we judge its performance against its peers and rank it on a scale of 1 to 100. The higher the rank, the better the stock performs than its peers. And, we do this for six investment strategies:

Value - shows how good of a value the stock is. Green is "inexpensive"; red is "expensive".

Growth - shows a company's growth potential. Green is "high growth" expected; red is "tough times ahead".

Safety - relates to the amount of debt a company has. Green is low debt level; red is high debt level.

Combined Financial - this isn't an average of the first three ranks but rather a consolidated view across several financial indicators. Green = good; red = tread carefully.

(NEW) Sentiment - quantifies professional analyst ratings and holdings as well as market pulse. Green = positive sentiment; red = skepticism (Only available to Premium Subscribers).

(NEW) 360° View - the ultimate rating with all financial and non-financial indicators.

ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt 360° View of 82 (better than 82% compared with alternatives) for 2025, overall professional sentiment and financial characteristics for the stock Helical Bar are very positive. The 360° View is based on consolidating four consolidated indicators, with all but one indicator above average for Helical Bar. The consolidated Growth Rank has a good rank of 74, which means that the company experiences above-average growth momentum when looking at financial metrics such as revenue, profit, and invested capital growth, as well as stock returns. This means that growth is higher than for 74% of competitors in the same industry. The consolidated Safety Rank at 72 means that the company has a financing structure that is safer than 72% comparable companies when looking at the amount of its debt, its refinancing requirements, and its ability to service debt. Finally, the consolidated Sentiment Rank has a good rank of 86, which means that professional investors are more optimistic about the stock than for 86% of alternative investment opportunities. But the consolidated Value Rank is less desirable at 28, meaning that the share price of Helical Bar is on the higher side compared with indicators such as revenues, profits, and invested capital.

RECOMMENDATION: With a consolidated 360° View of 82, Helical Bar is better positioned than 82% of all alternative stock investment opportunities based on the Obermatt Method. As three out of four consolidated Obermatt Ranks exhibit excellent performance, such as above-average growth (Growth Rank of 74), a safe financing structure (Safety Rank of 72), and positive professional market sentiment (Sentiment Rank of 86), it is a solid stock investment where growth may be the strongest driver of the investment rationale, also reflected by institutional investors. It is typical for growth companies to have low value, as is the case here. Investors are willing to pay more for companies that outperform their competitors. So the question is, how much more do you pay for the stock of Helical Bar compared with alternatives? You can use the following rule of thumb: The growth rank measures the growth momentum of the company (74% better than peers). The value rank could be the reverse reflection of that (26%). A Value Rank below that level may be assessed as expensive, a rank above that is still good value. Sometimes market sentiment just reflects the past, sometimes the reality. You pay more than the market average for this stock, but it may be worth it. ...read more

ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt Value Rank of 28 (worse than 72% compared with alternatives), Helical Bar shares are more expensive than the average comparable stock. The Value Rank is based on consolidating four value indicators, with half of the indicators below and half above average for Helical Bar. Expected dividend yields are higher than for 91% of comparable companies (a Dividend Yield rank of 91), making the stock attractive. The same is valid for Price-to-Book Capital (also referred to as market-to-book ratio) with a Price-to-Book Rank of 59, which means that the stock price is lower compared with invested capital than for 59% of comparable investments. But in respect to sales and profits, the picture is reversed. Price-to-Sales is 1 which means that the stock price compared with what market professionals expect for future profits is higher than for 99% of comparable companies, indicating a low value concerning Helical Bar's sales levels. The Price-to-Profit ratio (also referred to as price-earnings (P/E) ratio) is also unfavorable for Helical Bar with a rank of 1. This means that the stock price, compared with what market professionals expect for future profits, is higher than for 99% of comparable companies, indicating a low value concerning Helical Bar's profit levels. ...read more

RECOMMENDATION: The overall picture with a consolidated Value Rank of 28, is a hold recommendation based on Helical Bar's stock price compared with the company's operational size and dividend yields. The company seems confident that it can generate a reasonable return on invested capital, because it pays an above-average dividend while profits are below what you would expect for a company with this stock price. If you agree with this practice and believe that profits will return to higher levels, as the current dividend policy suggests, Helical Bar may be an attractive investment. If this is not the case, you may want to be careful with this stock as it is also expensive compared with its expected revenue levels. ...read more

RECOMMENDATION: The overall picture with a consolidated Growth Rank of 74, is a buy recommendation for growth and momentum investors. Are investors forecasting troubles based on the lack of operating investment activity at the company? This could be one explanation as to why stock returns are low. But stock returns can also be the result of correcting an error in the past, in this case, an overly optimistic outlook on the future, which is now more realistic. The Value Ranks may confirm such a picture. The more important growth indicators are revenues and profits, which are both above average for Helical Bar. This is a positive sign from the company's operational side and may give investors courage, despite the poor recent stock price performance. ...read more

RECOMMENDATION: A Combined Rank of 72, is a buy recommendation based on Helical Bar's financial characteristics. Investors looking for growth and low financial risk may find this stock attractive.
