Analysis

ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt 360° View of 37 (better than 37% compared with alternatives), overall professional sentiment and financial characteristics for the stock SMC are below the industry average. The 360° View is based on consolidating four consolidated indicators, with three out of four metrics below average for SMC. The only rank that is above average is the consolidated Safety Rank at 96, which means that the company has a financing structure that is safer than those of 96% comparable companies when looking at the amount of its debt, its refinancing requirements, and its ability to service debt. But the Value, Growth and Sentiment Ranks are all below average. The consolidated Value Rank has a less desirable rank of 49, which means that the share price of SMC is on the high side compared with typical size in indicators such as revenues, profits, and invested capital. The consolidated Growth Rank also has a low rank of 7, which implies 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. Finally, the consolidated Sentiment Rank is also low at a rank of 44, which means that professional investors are more pessimistic about the stock than for 56% of alternative investment opportunities. While Safety is strong, it’s not the most critical indicator, so we suggest proceeding with caution if you are considering this stock. ...read more

The higher, the better. For every stock, we judge its performance against its peers and rank it on a scale of 1 to 100. These ranks are percentiles: a rank of 75 means the company outperforms 75% of its peers in that specific area. The higher the rank, the better the stock stacks up against its peers.
