Current factor profile
The completed price record is weak and does not support the other measures yet. Measured price variability is high and should be considered separately from the return figures.
Low valuation with strong finances
The company ranks at the 96th percentile for value and the 86th percentile for financial strength in this market.
Low valuation without price support
Value ranks 96/100, but price performance ranks only 12/100. The completed price record is not yet confirming the valuation case.
Capital returned is supported by cash flow
Shareholder yield is 10.2% and free-cash-flow yield is 24.7%. The cash-flow figure supports the reported distribution.
