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.

Itab Shop Concept stock research in summary

itab.comsv


ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt Combined Rank of 98 (better than 98% compared with investment alternatives), Itab Shop Concept (Office Services & Supplies, Sweden) shares have much better financial characteristics than comparable stocks. Shares of Itab Shop Concept are low in value (priced high) with a consolidated Value Rank of 40 (worse than 60% of alternatives). But they show above-average growth (Growth Rank of 96) and are safely financed (Safety Rank of 90, which means below-average debt burdens). ...read more


RECOMMENDATION: A Combined Rank of 98, is a strong buy recommendation based on Itab Shop Concept's financial characteristics. Investors looking for growth and low financial risk may find this stock attractive. While the company Itab Shop Concept exhibits low value (Obermatt Value Rank of 40), which means that the stock price is rather high, it also demonstrates above-average growth (Obermatt Growth Rank of 96). This is a typical case, as high-growth companies are often expensive. Good financing practices (Obermatt Safety Rank of 90) are a double-edged sword: if the company continues growing, low debt limits shareholder returns. But if the company increases its debt, it will also increase risk. In other words, this is an investment on the safer side, despite the above-average price (low value).

Value Metrics in Detail

ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt Value Rank of 40 (worse than 60% compared with alternatives), Itab Shop Concept 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 Itab Shop Concept. Expected dividend yields are higher than for 69% of comparable companies (a Dividend Yield rank of 69), 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 66, which means that the stock price is lower compared with invested capital than for 66% of comparable investments. But in respect to sales and profits, the picture is reversed. Price-to-Sales is 45 which means that the stock price compared with what market professionals expect for future profits is higher than for 55% of comparable companies, indicating a low value concerning Itab Shop Concept's sales levels. The Price-to-Profit ratio (also referred to as price-earnings (P/E) ratio) is also unfavorable for Itab Shop Concept with a rank of 37. This means that the stock price, compared with what market professionals expect for future profits, is higher than for 63% of comparable companies, indicating a low value concerning Itab Shop Concept's profit levels. ...read more

RECOMMENDATION: The overall picture with a consolidated Value Rank of 40, is a hold recommendation based on Itab Shop Concept'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, Itab Shop Concept 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. We recommend further analyzing the stock with Obermatt’s Value, Safety, and Sentiment Ranks, including the 360° View, before making an investment decision, which is essential in this case, as the financial indicators are inconclusive. ...read more

Growth Metrics in Detail

ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt Growth Rank of 96 (better than 96% compared with alternatives) for 2024, Itab Shop Concept shows one of the highest growth dynamics in its industry. Investors also speak of high momentum. The Growth Rank is based on consolidating four value indicators, with all but one indicator above average for Itab Shop Concept. Sales Growth has a rank of 86 which means that currently, professionals expect the company to grow more than 86% of its competitors. Capital Growth is also above 46% of competitors with a rank of 96, and Stock Returns with the rank of 96 is also an outperformance. Only Profit Growth is low with a rank of 46 which means that currently, professionals expect the company to grow its profits less than 54% of its competitors. ...read more

RECOMMENDATION: The overall picture with a consolidated Growth Rank of 96, is a buy recommendation for growth and momentum investors. All three operating growth indicators, namely revenue, profit, and capital growth, are showing improvements. This is a good indication of a company with a positive future. That might, at the same time, be the simple reason why profit growth is low. A growing company needs money and thus can't yet show high profit growth. Look out for signs in corporate communication about extra growth efforts costing time and money. If that is the case, Itab Shop Concept is a good growth stock. While momentum is a popular investment factor, the value aspect might be the more important one, in the longer term. We recommend analyzing the stock with Obermatt’s Value, Safety, and Sentiment Ranks to arrive at a 360° View of the stock purchase case. ...read more

Safety Metrics in Detail

ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt Safety Rank of 90 (better than 90% compared with alternatives) for 2024, the company Itab Shop Concept has safe financing practices, which means that their overall debt burden is low. This doesn't mean that the business of Itab Shop Concept is safe, it only means that the company is on the safer side regarding possible bankruptcy, assuming that public reporting is correct. The Safety Rank is based on consolidating three financing indicators, where all three are above average for Itab Shop Concept.

RECOMMENDATION: With a consolidated Safety Rank of 90 (better than 90% compared with alternatives), Itab Shop Concept has a financing structure that is significantly safer than that of its competitors. These three positive financing indicators signal that the company is less likely to default on its debt obligations. However, it also means that its shareholder returns will be more modest if things go well. A low safety means fewer troubles in downtimes and less upside in good times. Investors may not have a debt issue with Itab Shop Concept but they should also compare Obermatt’s Value, Growth, and Sentiment Ranks before making a decision. ...read more
