Top 10 Stock TIM 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 90 (better than 90% compared with alternatives) for 2023, overall professional sentiment and financial characteristics for the stock TIM are very positive. The 360° View is based on consolidating four consolidated indicators, with all four indicators above average for TIM. The consolidated Value Rank has an attractive rank of 86, which means that the share price of TIM is on the lower side compared with the typical size in indicators such as revenues, profits, and invested capital. This means the stock price is lower than for 86% of alternative stocks in the same industry. The consolidated Growth Rank has a good rank of 68, 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.

RECOMMENDATION: With a consolidated 360° View of 90, TIM is better positioned than 90% of all alternative stock investment opportunities based on the Obermatt Method. As all consolidated Obermatt Ranks exhibit excellent performance, such as good value (Value Rank of 86), above-average growth (Growth Rank of 68), safe financing practices (Safety Rank of 68), and a positive market sentiment in the professional investor community (Sentiment Rank of 62), it is a solid stock investment where the risk of paying too much for the shares is limited and disappointments are less likely to occur, unless information not publicly available. High-Value Ranks sometimes indicate that the company's future is challenging. If they are safely financed and have above average growth, and are still a good value, it may indicate that this will not continue. We recommend evaluating whether the future of TIM is as difficult as the stock’s low price, despite what good growth and safe financing practice suggest. Since the professional community is optimistic, you might have less to worry about, and the stock is just not sufficiently visible, which may indicate good timing right now. ...read more
Sentiment Strategy: Professional Market Sentiment for TIM positive
ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt Sentiment Rank of 62 (better than 62% compared with alternatives), overall professional sentiment and engagement for the stock TIM is above average. The Sentiment Rank is based on consolidating four sentiment indicators where all but one are above average for TIM. Analyst Opinions are at a rank of 65 (better than 65% of alternative investments), which means that currently, stock research analysts tend to recommend a stock investment in the company. The Professional Investors rank is also good at 59, which means that currently, professional investors hold more stock in this company than in 59% of alternative investment opportunities. Pros tend to favor investing in this company. In addition, Market Pulse has a rank of 67 which means that the current professional news and professional social networks are on the positive side when discussing this company (more positive news than for 67% of competitors). But Analyst Opinions Change has a below-average rank of 29, which means that stock research experts are currently changing their opinions for the worse when it comes to recommending this stock. In other words, they are getting more critical of investments in TIM. ...read more
RECOMMENDATION: With a consolidated Sentiment Rank of 62 (more positive than 62% compared with investment alternatives), TIM has a reputation among professional investors that is above-average compared with that of its competitors. This is an early sign of caution, even if the stock has significantly appreciated. If analysts change their opinions, the stock may become too expensive. If the price is on the way down, the trend may continue. This may be a stock with a good reputation and history, but it may have reached its breaking point by now. Investors should look at the Value Ranks as well. If they indicate trouble, it might just materialize in the future. ...read more
Value Strategy: TIM Stock Price Value at the top
ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt Value Rank of 86 (better than 86% compared with alternatives) for 2023, TIM shares are significantly less expensive than comparable stocks. The Value Rank is based on consolidating four value indicators that are all above average for TIM. Price-to-Sales is 54 which means that the stock price compared with what market professionals expect for future sales is lower than for 54% of comparable companies, indicating a good value for TIM's revenue size. The same is valid for expected Price-to-Profits, more favorable than for 56% of alternatives, and this is also true for the Price-to-Book capital ratio (also referred to as market-to-book ratio) with a Price-to-Capital Rank of 77. Compared with other companies in the same industry, dividend yields of TIM are expected to be higher than for 96% of all competitors (a Dividend Yield rank of 96). ...read more
RECOMMENDATION: The overall picture with a consolidated Value Rank of 86, is a buy recommendation based on TIM's stock price compared with the company's operational size and dividend yields. Since all value metrics are above the industry average, there is no objection to investing in TIM based on its detailed value metrics.
Growth Strategy: TIM Growth Momentum good
ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt Growth Rank of 68 (better than 68% compared with alternatives), TIM shows an above-average growth dynamic in its industry. Investors also speak of positive momentum. The Growth Rank is based on consolidating four value indicators, with half of the indicators below and half above average for TIM. Profit Growth has a rank of 59, which means that currently professionals expect the company to grow its profits more than 59% of its competitors. This is a good sign for shareholders, which is confirmed by an above-average Stock Returns rank of 75 (above 75% of alternative investments). But Sales Growth has a below the median rank of 44, which means that, currently, professionals expect the company to grow less than 56% of its competitors, and Capital Growth also has a lower rank of 46. ...read more
RECOMMENDATION: The overall picture with a consolidated Growth Rank of 68, is a buy recommendation for growth and momentum investors. Because revenues and invested capital are the more solid growth indicators, the positive development on the profit side is less relevant. It may have been caused by cost-cutting, which may be a negative growth indicator. Finally, the above-average stock returns recently are a thing of the past and not a good indicator of future returns. Investors should be confident that the cost-cutting initiative leading to higher profits is to benefit the company's future. If not, there is little growth momentum, and investment is only advisable if the Value Ranks suggest a good investment timing for TIM. ...read more

ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt Safety Rank of 68 (better than 68% compared with alternatives), the company TIM has financing practices on the safer side, which mean that their overall debt burden is lower than average. This doesn't mean that the business of TIM 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, with two out of three indicators above average for TIM. Leverage is at a rank of 67, meaning the company has a below-average debt-to-equity ratio. It has less debt than 67% of its competitors. Liquidity is also good at a rank of 61, meaning the company generates more profit to service its debt than 61% of its competitors. This indicates that the company is on the safer side when it comes to debt service. But Refinancing is lower at a rank of 37, which means that the portion of the debt that is about to be refinanced is above-average. It has more debt in the refinancing stage than 63% of its competitors. ...read more
RECOMMENDATION: With a consolidated Safety Rank of 68 (better than 68% compared with alternatives), TIM has a financing structure that is safer than that of its competitors. The refinancing issues could be a short-term problem, especially if the company has reputation issues. Banks and investors don't like to refinance debt if there are clouds on the horizon. For this reason, investors should look at the refinancing environment for TIM. Does it look safe that debt that is coming due can be covered with new debt? If that is the case, then the financing situation of the company is on the safer side. If not, it may be better to wait until refinancing has been completed and the Refinancing rank is good again. ...read more

RECOMMENDATION: A Combined Rank of 95, is a strong buy recommendation based on TIM's financial characteristics. As the company TIM's key financial metrics all exhibit excellent performance, such as good value (Obermatt Value Rank of 86), above-average growth (Obermatt Growth Rank of 68), and indicate that the company is safely financed (Obermatt Safety Rank of 68), it is a solid stock investment where the risk of paying too much for the share is limited, unless the company has a bleak future. Such good financial performance can indicate that the company's future might actually be challenging, as it may be difficult to maintain the good performance. If they are safely financed and have been growing above average, and are still a good value, it means that the market is keeping prices low, for a reason which may become clearer over time. We recommend evaluating the future of TIM. If you believe the company's future is market-typical or even better, this could be an argument for a share purchase. ...read more
