Top 10 Stock Jubilant Life Sciences Hold 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 27 (better than 27% compared with alternatives), overall professional sentiment and engagement for the stock Jubilant Life Sciences are below the industry average. The 360° View is based on consolidating four consolidated indicators, with three out of four indicators below average for Jubilant Life Sciences. Only the consolidated Value Rank has an attractive rank of 86, which means that the share price of Jubilant Life Sciences is on the lower side compared with typical size in indicators such as revenues, profits, and invested capital. This means that the stock price is lower than for 86% of alternative stocks in the same industry. All other consolidated ranks are below average. The consolidated Growth Rank has a low rank of 15, which means that the company exhibits below-average growth momentum when looking at financial metrics such as revenue, profit, and invested capital growth as well as stock returns. The consolidated Safety Rank has a riskier rank of 40, meaning the company has a riskier financing structure than 60% comparable companies when looking at the amount of its debt, its refinancing requirements, and its ability to service debt. Finally, professionals are more pessimistic about the stock than for 74% of alternative investment opportunities, reflected in the consolidated Sentiment Rank of 26. ...read more

RECOMMENDATION: With a 360° View of 27, Jubilant Life Sciences is worse than 73% of all alternative stock investment opportunities based on the Obermatt Method. Only one of the consolidated Obermatt Ranks exhibits above-average performance, namely the Value Rank at a level of 86. All other ranks are below average, so proceed with caution. The company has below-average growth expectations (Growth Rank of 15), a riskier financing structure (Safety Rank of 40), and negative market sentiment in the professional investor community (Sentiment Rank of 26). This combination is sensitive to a crisis, because high debt levels (low safety) require growth to finance the debt burden. It’s no wonder that the investor community indicators are skeptical (low sentiment). Good value is sometimes an indication that the company's future is challenging. The below-par growth performance may be the reason for this assessment. We recommend evaluating whether the future of Jubilant Life Sciences is as challenging as the low price of the stock suggests. Since the professional community is pessimistic, you might need to worry about the future of Jubilant Life Sciences. Only invest if you have solid reasons to believe that the sluggish growth is temporary and the current market sentiment is an overreaction, possibly due to reputational issues in the past. ...read more

This is an essential sign of caution, as it could be the forebearer of bad news. Professional Investors are also somewhat absent with a rank of 15, which means that, currently, professional investors hold less stock in this company than in 85% of alternative investment opportunities.

The Value Rank is based on consolidating four value indicators, with three out of four indicators above average for Jubilant Life Sciences.

RECOMMENDATION: The overall picture with a consolidated Value Rank of 86, is a strong buy recommendation based on Jubilant Life Sciences's stock price compared with the company's operational size and dividend yields. The below-average dividend yield may be a good sign, as it could mean the company has more attractive investment opportunities for the generated cash than to pay it out as dividends. A low dividend yield can also indicate a growth phase. ...read more

ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt Growth Rank of 15 (better than 15% compared with alternatives), Jubilant Life Sciences shows one of the most restricted growth dynamics in its industry. There is little momentum in this company. The Growth Rank is based on consolidating four value indicators, with all four metrics below average for Jubilant Life Sciences. Sales Growth has a rank of 21, which means that currently professionals expect the company to grow less than 79% of its competitors. The same is valid for Profit Growth, with a rank of 26, and Capital Growth with 49. In addition, Stock Returns have a below market rank of 25, which means that the stock returns have recently been below 75% of alternative investments. ...read more

RECOMMENDATION: The overall picture with a consolidated Value Rank of 15, is a SELL recommendation for growth and momentum investors. These are all bad growth momentum indicators. These are negative signals for investors interested in growth companies. Value is likely good for this company, as investors may have left this stock in the cold. If that is the case, investors should look at the company's prospects, especially Sentiment performance, because it may be a turnaround situation that could entail above-average returns in the future. But it remains a risky bet, as no growth signals are in the green zone yet. ...read more

ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt Safety Rank of 40 (better than 40% compared with alternatives), the company Jubilant Life Sciences has financing practices on the riskier side, which means that their overall debt burden is above the industry average. This doesn't mean that the business of Jubilant Life Sciences is also risky, it only means that the company is on the riskier side in respect to bankruptcy in case things turn sour, assuming that public reporting is correct. The Safety Rank is based on consolidating three financing indicators, with just one indicator above average for Jubilant Life Sciences and the other two below average. Refinancing is at 96, meaning the portion of the debt about to be refinanced is below average. It has less debt in the refinancing stage than 96% of its competitors. But Leverage is high with a rank of 22, meaning the company has an above-average debt-to-equity ratio. It has more debt than 78% of its competitors. Liquidity is also on the riskier side with a rank of 23, meaning the company generates less profit to service its debt than 77% of its competitors. ...read more

RECOMMENDATION: With an Obermatt Safety Rank of 40 (worse than 60% compared with alternatives), Jubilant Life Sciences has a financing structure that is riskier than that of its competitors. A good Refinancing Rank means that the problems of the company may not be around the corner. But high Leverage is only good if things go well, and low Liquidity is a signal for caution. The financing signals for Jubilant Life Sciences are on the riskier side, requiring the company's future to be on the safer side. Investors may want to look at Growth and Sentiment ranks before making a financial decision. ...read more

ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt Combined Rank of 40 (worse than 60% compared with investment alternatives), Jubilant Life Sciences (Pharmaceuticals, India) shares have somewhat below-average financial characteristics compared with similar stocks. Shares of Jubilant Life Sciences are a good value (attractively priced) with a consolidated Obermatt Value Rank of 86 (better than 86% of alternatives) but show below-average growth (Growth Rank of 15), and are riskily financed (Safety Rank of 40), which means above-average debt burdens. ...read more

RECOMMENDATION: An Obermatt Combined Rank of 40, is a hold recommendation based on Jubilant Life Sciences's financial characteristics. As the company Jubilant Life Sciences's key financial metrics exhibit good value (Obermatt Value Rank of 86) but low growth (Obermatt Growth Rank of 15) and risky financing practices (Obermatt Safety Rank of 40), it may be a risky investment, because debt in times of crises can make things worse.

If you believe that low growth is temporary or just due to a specific current event, you may conclude that the good value of the stock provides an attractive investment opportunity. ...read more
